Football is a complex and dynamic sport that requires a high level of physical fitness, coordination, and strength, with the knees being particularly susceptible to significant loads and frequent injuries. The knee, as one of the most important joints in the body, plays a key role in stability, mobility, and athletic performance. Knee injuries, such as tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), meniscus, and other joint structures, can severely jeopardize an athlete's career and require carefully planned and rapid rehabilitation to ensure a safe and effective return to sports activities. This paper explores various aspects of knee rehabilitation in football, including knee anatomy, common injuries, treatment methods, and the role of kinesitherapy in the recovery process. The focus is on the importance of timely and properly guided rehabilitation, which includes the acute, subacute, and late phases of recovery. Each phase has specific goals and approaches, from reducing pain and inflammation in the acute phase, to restoring mobility, strength, and proprioception in the subacute and late phases. Kinesitherapy has proven crucial for successful recovery, through the use of specific exercises and techniques that strengthen muscles, improve flexibility and stability, and prepare the athlete for a return to the field. Additionally, emphasis is placed on the prevention of re-injuries, through continuous muscle strengthening, maintaining flexibility, proprioceptive training, and educating patients on proper movement techniques and the importance of adhering to an exercise program. High-quality and rapid rehabilitation, along with adherence to recommended guidelines, is key to long-term knee health and maintaining a high-level sports career.
