Park focused on Reds return
Ji-sung Park is ready for the long road back to recovery after
undergoing a successful knee operation.
Park returned home on Friday after surgery was performed on his
right knee in a hospital in Colorado last month.
The 26-year-old midfielder, who has struggled with injuries this
season, playing only 12 starts, spent the first few days in his
home town of Suwon, near Seoul, and refrained from speaking to the
media.
In his first interview since the surgery, he told Yonhap news
agency that, despite an element of trepidation about the long road
to recovery that lies ahead, he is determined to regain his fitness
and play again for the Reds.
"Frankly speaking, rehabilitation is the last thing that I want to
do," he said, "but I have to accept it if I want to play again in
the Premier League."
Park has been on crutches since the operation, while United say
they will review his situation in August.
