Let see if i can hel: When of the things could be the problem that he have ligament injury which did not healed. Other things could be have a small fracture of the cartilage in the talus did not healed. Check it out, both could be diagnose with MRI of the area.

Get an MRI : As you know, ankle injuries can cause damage to several different structures including a bone called the talus. Sometimes there can be divots in the cartilage on the surface of the talus that can lead to continued pain a long time after the injury. An MRI can show if something like this is going on.

Be examined...: He may need further evaluation with advanced imaging such as an MRI or ct scan to evaluate for an osteochondral lesion.
