The French Julian Alaphilippe (Quick Step Alpha Vinyl)double world champion on the road, remains confined to Herentals Hospital (Belgium) “in a special period of observation” as a result of the fall he suffered last Sunday in Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
The radiological component is conclusive: two broken ribs, a broken scapula and a hemopneumothorax.
“The complexity of the injuries requires additional observation period before the recovery path is decided. For now, he will remain in Herentals hospital,” said the latest statement published by Quick Step.
For his part, the Belgian Ilan van Wilderwho was also involved in the massive collapse of Liège, had to undergo surgery to correct the damage sustained to his jaw, an operation performed by Dr. Pieter-Jan Van Bever. The 21-year-old will not be participating in the Giro d’Italia.
