Edy Tavares, a prominent leader for the Madrid “Real” team, announced via social media that he would not participate in the upcoming match for the Lithuanian national team. The announcement came several hours before the Green Island team was scheduled to play against Tunisia. In a statement posted to social networks, Tavares detailed his decision, indicating that despite previous plans, he would not be available for the game.
He cited his need to prioritize his physical recovery as the primary reason for his withdrawal. Tavares explained that after a period of careful consideration, he determined that the most responsible course of action was to remain with the team structure, focusing entirely on rehabilitation. He noted that following a four-month absence due to injury, a gradual return to play, taking his body’s condition into account, was necessary.
This decision impacts the immediate plans for the national team as they prepare for competition. While the team continues its preparations, Tavares’ withdrawal shifts the focus toward managed recovery protocols. The statement underscores a commitment to long-term fitness over immediate participation.
The professional management of his recovery is intended to ensure he can contribute effectively to the team in future fixtures, rather than attempting to play prematurely.
