On her personal Instagram page, striker Nguyen Xuan Son's wife - Marcele Seippel posted a picture of her hugging the male player on a hospital bed.
She shared: "I will always be here for you. Anytime, I will always hold your hand and give you strength. Be strong my love. I wish I could transfer your pain to myself, share this feeling with you. I love you, forever."
Striker Nguyen Xuan Son suffered a serious injury in the second leg of the 2024 ASEAN Cup final. He suffered a complex closed fracture of the middle third of the two tibia bones, with a large fragment. Immediately after returning home with the national team, the naturalized striker underwent surgery on the evening of January 6. The surgery was a great success.
Accompanying Xuan Son during this difficult time are the sports industry, fans, family, friends, especially his wife Marcele Seippel.
When Xuan Son was first injured, the WAG updated his condition on her personal page. She wrote: "To all those who are worried, Rafaelson (Xuan Son's Brazilian name) will overcome this injury strongly. Thank you for all the prayers for peace, please continue to pray for him."
Before entering the decisive surgery, the number 12 striker of the Vietnamese team could not hide his desire to see his wife - his companion and greatest spiritual support.
The moment the family reunited at the hospital not only eased anxiety, but also became a symbol of love and resilience in the face of adversity. The image of the couple hugging affectionately on the hospital bed moved fans.
Since Xuan Son got injured until now, Marcele Seippel has always been by his side. She is the motivation for the striker who is playing for Nam Dinh team to be stronger and more resilient in his journey to recover from injury.
According to the latest update from the hospital, Xuan Son's current condition is very positive as he is no longer in pain, has light mobility and is actively recovering.
Prof. Dr. Tran Trung Dung - the person who directly performed the surgery for this striker shared: "The opportunity for Xuan Son to return to top sports is completely possible. In terms of treatment techniques, there is nothing too complicated. However, surgery only accounts for 10% of the process, while 90% of recovery depends on the work behind it."
