Returning to Italy from the meeting held with the Swedish team in Oestersund, Lukas Hofer underwent an acromion-plastic surgery on his right shoulder at the Schulthess Klinik in Zurich, by Professor Philipp Moroder and in agreement with the FISI Medical Commission.
This is the same kind of operation the 32-year-old from South Tyrol faced at the end of last season, but on the left shoulder. Hofer will now have to observe a rest period of about ten days and then he will gradually be able to resume his summer training, which includes a second meeting in Sweden in July and then, from early August, the first training block together with his team-mates from the Azzurri national team. in Obertilliach.
