Arsène Wenger believes the biggest hurdle to Eduardo's recovery could be mental, not physical.
The Arsenal striker suffered a broken leg and a dislocated ankle at Birmingham on February 23 but is expected to return to action before the end of the year. Eduardo is currently in Brazil continuing his rehabilitation.
Wenger was upbeat about the Croatian's future when the topic cropped up at a Q&A with shareholders at Emirates Stadium. The Arsenal manager knows that Eduardo will face psychologicial challenges, like all victims of serious injuries, but Wenger is backing the 25-year-old to overcome them.
"The medical profession say he [will] make a full physical recovery," said the Frenchman. "We don't believe physically there will be a problem afterwards but how much impact it will have in his head when he sees the tackles flying in again, only the future will tell us.
"We believe medically there is no problem, he will play again, but after that how well can he deal with it? He is a tough boy so I am confident he will deal with it.
"At the moment we sent him to Sao Paolo, where he was born, where he can wait before he starts rehabilitation. There is a good physio there in Sao Paolo who he knows, and he is taking care of him. When he is ready to start training at the beginning of the season he will come back of course.
"We expect him to be out completely for six months but to play really at the top, top level, it will be nine months [from when he was injured]."

Arsène Wenger argues it would be "criminal" if his Arsenal side did not kick on from this season.
The Gunners ended their 2007/08 campaign with a 1-0 win at Sunderland on Sunday.
They finished one place and 15 points better off than 12 months ago yet, considering their flying start, the failure to land a major trophy can only be seen as a disappointment. But, according to the manager, it is hardly "the implosion" that has been portrayed.
Indeed, the Frenchman believes his side will come back older, wiser and better next season. His main aim will be to exploit the advances of this campaign to the maximum.
“I think the big core of the team is ready to come back and fight," said the manager. "I think all of them are determined to come back and win.
“I feel they have created something special and not to take advantage of that would be criminal for me.
"At the moment the vibes coming out of the club is like we are going to implode but it is not like that at all.
“It is very stable and we are in a very good financial situation, we have a good team and good players. You have to let people talk then come back and win. I will be a busy man [this summer] but I am not worried.
“Like every big disappointment you have in life, you go through a period where you have to swallow, digest it and think where do I go from here?"
Steve Coppell's side were never expected to scale the heights of their debut season in the Premier League. Survival was the watchword last summer and that seemed assured when Reading reeled off three wins in four March matches.
Since then a goalless draw with Blackburn, a heavy defeat at Newcastle and - worst of all - a home defeat against Fulham has left the Royals just three points off the drop and looking over their shoulders anxiously.
We asked Nick Ive of the Reading Evening Post for an insight into Reading's campaign ahead of their weekend trip to Emirates Stadium. Read on for Nick's views on Coppell, the Royals' likely player of the season, their chances of beating the drop and the team changes we could see on Saturday.
THE STORY SO FAR
"The table doesn't lie, Reading have found it a lot, lot tougher this season. But having said that it's not too much of a disgrace because if Reading had been in this position last year no one would have batted an eyelid. They did so well last season that expectations have possibly a little bit too high for them. I still think they have enough to stay up although last week's display against Fulham was one of the worst I've seen.
"Steve Coppell is still popular among the fans. He's had a lot more money than he has actually spent but I think what he has found hard is attracting good players to come to Reading. He won't spend money just for the sake of it if the players he brings in aren't any better than what he already has. In that sense I think Reading are finding it hard because they need to establish themselves as a Premier League team before they can really start to build."
PLAYER OF THE SEASON?
"Stephen Hunt. He's been really good, really consistent this season. Technically he's not the best of players but what he gives you is 100 per cent every week. His performances in recent weeks haven't been so good but then neither have the team's. I'm pretty certain the fans would vote for Hunt, I'd be very surprised if anyone else won Reading's player of the season award."
SADLY MISSED
"Reading have missed Steven Sidwell badly. He was so good for them last season and obviously he's not getting the games at Chelsea. He's fiercely ambitious, that's why he went there. I wouldn't be surprised if he moved on in the summer just to get games of football but I would be surprised to see him back at Reading unfortunately."
STAYING UP?
"Before last weekend I was very confident Reading would stay up but losing to Fulham - and the manner of the defeat - was very disappointing. However Reading do have winnable games. Arsenal away is the toughest one and I can't really see them getting anything there, so if Bolton and Birmingham do well they could be in the relegation zone. But the three games after that - Spurs at home, Wigan away and Derby away - are all winnable games. I think four or five points from those three games will be enough to keep Reading up.
"They have struggled away from home this season but the home form has been pretty good up until the Fulham game. Where that performance came from I just don't know and I'm not sure the manager does. It might have been a mixture of nerves, the pressure starting to tell, and they just didn't perform on the day. Fulham played with freedom and it shows."
TALKING TACTICS
"Coppell said that one of any 10 outfield players could be axed but he won't make 10 changes, purely because he doesn't have the players to come in. I think there will be three, possibly four, changes. Dave Kitson could come back in up front, possibly in place of Shane Long. There could be a change on the wing with John Oster. Whether Little is ready to start I'm not sure but Kevin Doyle might drop out to the right. Skipper Graeme Murty could come in and Bobby Convey could get a chance."
IMPRESSIONS OF ARSENAL
"Reading were unlucky not to win last season's game at the Emirates but I think that's because Arsenal didn't finish them off earlier in the game. Every time Reading have played Arsenal there is an obvious gulf in class. They seem to find it hard to play against Arsenal. They have drawn against Manchester United and Chelsea but they haven't really come close against Arsenal. Perhaps it's the style of football they play. I can't see anything other than a home win on Saturday, even though Arsenal don't have much to play for now."
