These can range from simple physical complaints such as sprains and torn ligaments, to more problematic symptoms of illness that indicate a more serious internal condition. Injuries may require several weeks to recover from, leaving a permanent mark on your player's career. Keep a close eye on the stamina levels and make sure they get adequate rest.
