In the course of a few months, Gzim Salihi went on three concussions. In an interview with SVT Sport in February, he talked about the tough road back.
- It's been tough. After the second concussion, I was gone for a month and a half without any training, so it has been very tough to just be at home in a dark room and not do a shit, he said then.
But now 22-year-old Salihi has recovered and is ready for the handball pitch.
- There were some thoughts when I lay in a dark room. But now I am completely restored, he tells GT.
He says he had thoughts of ending his career during rehabilitation.
- Then I saw no light in the tunnel. But now it's bright. Today it is great. I finished the brainstorm a month ago and can work out fully.
The right wing was really ready for a comeback at the end of the season - but then all the games were canceled due to the corona pandemic.
