Plushenko reacts to Kostornaya’s injury: ‘I had 17 operations’

“I trained regularly at CSKA, but I didn’t skate – I didn’t go out on the ice almost as soon as I arrived from training camp in Novogorsk. There was an old hip injury that didn’t heal. didn’t feel for a long time, but at one point it “pulled” so much that I went for an examination. In general, tomorrow I’m going to the hospital for an operation, so I won’t have time to recover by trial skates – I won’t be on the ice until the second half of September.

We have already staged the programs – they are very beautiful, interesting, they are all familiar stories, I have not heard such music from anyone yet. I hope everything will go well”, quotes Kostornaya TASS.

Buyanova announced cooperation with Kostornaya on an ongoing basis
