The Girona He has serious problems in midfield. As if it were a curse, the Catalan team dragged from the previous campaign a long list of casualties in the midfield area. The first to fall is Ibrahima Kebe, the 22-year-old Malian had to undergo surgery in early June after injuring his left knee. This happened just one day after getting a pass in the promotion play-off and according to the estimated version, the African had five months.
During the play-offs, the curse continued on its course and two key pieces fell Michel, Borja Garcia and Ivan Martin. Borgia He injured the posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in the second leg of the semi-final match Eibar. Second, Ivan Martin he broke the fibula in his right leg in the second leg of the final match Tenerife. Both sustained injuries that lasted about three months and they hope, starting next month, to start doing some work with the group, depending on each individual’s recovery.
This season, the Catalan team wants to make a clean record and forget the ordeal of the injuries they suffered last season. A long list of names went through the ‘low’ sheet and the club knew they had to work to prevent such phenomena from happening as much as possible, which seemed more paranormal than logical.
Everything was going in the right direction until last Monday. On the second day, at home against Getafeone of the most shining of the schemes of Michael there was a blow in the second half. The curse pointed this time to one of the signatories. Rodrigo Riquelme He suffered a fracture to his left humerus and, at the moment, there is no date for the player’s return in the absence of the club announcing an estimated time of absence.
In this story, we come to the third day of Friday. Back home and in front of Celta Vigo, Angel Herrera He had to withdraw due to a muscle injury before a quarter of an hour of the game. Venezuelan is replaced by Ramon Terrats, both also had to be replaced during the match due to some calf discomfort. The curse continued to do so and, once again, directed at Atletico’s midfielders.
In the middle of this case that deserves to be studied, there are also added, although not in the middle of the field, the damages of Arnau, Bernardo and Valery. The right-handed winger had ankle discomfort and was absent from several training sessions, the Colombian has been suffering from discomfort since the end of the season and it looks like he will soon have minutes on the pitch, and the left-handed winger from Si l’ Escala suffered a sprain on his right ankle.
To give you an idea, on Girona’s website they appear as midfielders Kebé, Terrats, Samu Saiz, Aleix García, Yangel Herrera, Iván Martín and Borja García. Of these seven mentioned, only two had no relief or injury. And that doesn’t count Rodrigo Riquelme, who although he appears as an attacker on the web, the man from Madrid can adapt to offensive positions in midfield.
The Girona he is still working to sign a midfielder and, if he arrives, they will try to ensure that he has no contact with the curse that seems to be in the middle of Montilivi.
