Summary

Understanding how candidate genes, previously associated with injury susceptibility, influence the incidence of muscle, bone, ligament, and tendon injuries across the development pathway of elite footballers may provide valuable insight into inherent injury predisposition to support the long-term development of every individual. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the association between candidate genetic variants and muscle, bone, ligament, and tendon injuries in elite football with sub-analysis of the influence of age and maturation on injury susceptibility.
