Celta’s recent defeat against Rayo has been compounded by injuries to key players. Alfon has sustained a muscle injury to his right hamstring, while Marcos Alonso has suffered a sprained right ankle.
Assessing the Damage
Alfon’s injury is expected to keep him out of competition for approximately a week, ruling him out of the upcoming Cup match against Real Madrid. Marcos Alonso’s situation is more complex, as he is already set to miss the next League match against Athletic due to a double yellow card. The ankle sprain has added uncertainty to his availability.
Medical Evaluations Pending
Both players will undergo medical tests in the coming hours to determine the full extent of their injuries. This news comes as a further blow to Celta, who are already without Iago Aspas for the remainder of the month.
