Al Salah in Valencia
When Al Salah, the Egyptian star of Liverpool FC was injured during the Champions’ League final in May 2018, the first thing he did was to catch a plane to Valencia.
The reason for his visit was not to enjoy the sun, sea, sand or sangria, or even to be amazed by our dragons, but to get his shoulder fixed by top valencian physiotherapist Ruben Pons from Benicassim, who has been Liverpool FC’s physio since 2014.
Having previously worked at the University of Valencia, as well as in Barcelona and Madrid, Pons started working for Villarreal FC in 2005.
He left El Madrigal in 2010 and began working with individual players at several clubs including Valencia, Newcastle and Swansea.
Pons is fighting against the clock to get Salah fit for the Russia World Cup, where Egypt’s debut will be against Uruguay on June 15th.
