This is just SAD.
One of Brazil’s best outside hitters, Ricardo Lucarelli, ruptured his right ACL a couple of days ago and will undergo surgery as soon as possible. His club team, Volei Taubate, has confirmed the heartbreaking news on their website.
If his recovery goes well, the 2016 Olympic champion is expected to play in the Playoffs of the Superliga sometime in April 2018.
If he doesn’t get back in full shape, then the 25 year old will most likely return when the 2018 season with the national team kicks off in May.
Get well soon Luca!!!
