A fully synthetic implantable multi-phased scaffold for ligament repair having a first phase that includes a synthetic graft material suitable for implantation into a mammal, the synthetic graft material dimensioned to have a body with first and second ends, two second phases, each second phase including microspheres and a body and first and second ends, the first end of the respective second phases disposed at each end of the first phase, and two third phases each third phase disposed at the second end of each respective second phase, so the first phase is separated from the respective third phases by the second phases, the third phases including a material for anchoring the scaffold to bone or soft tissue.
