The full picture

Moise Kean has undergone treatment for a shin injury at the Cugat Institute in Barcelona, with a reported recovery time of five weeks, according to Como's statement. The 26-year-old striker has been dealing with the recurring issue since his time at Fiorentina. Kean had not played for Como since September 20 due to the injury. The club's statement confirmed the treatment was carried out successfully.

Kean's shin injury has been a persistent issue, with no recovery in sight using conservative treatment, leading to the decision to seek specialist treatment. The injury has been ongoing since before his transfer to Como in August. He suffered a setback while on international duty with Italy, which angered Como. The specialist treatment was carried out at the world-renowned Cugat Institute.

Como's statement indicates that Kean is expected to be out for around five weeks following the treatment. The recovery process may vary, potentially keeping him out until December. The club confirmed the treatment's success, but the exact nature of the treatment remains unspecified. Kean's prolonged absence will likely impact Como's lineup for the coming months.
