The news of Gerard Moreno’s latest injury is a story that has been repeated many times before. The Catalan footballer has been plagued by a cycle of injuries that have prevented him from playing to his full potential. Despite being one of the best players in the league when healthy, Moreno’s time on the field has been limited in recent years.
This past weekend, Moreno was forced to leave the game against Valladolid due to muscle discomfort in his soleus. This is the same issue that has caused him problems in the past. The player is currently waiting for test results to determine the extent of the injury, and in the meantime, he will not be training with the team. Unfortunately, based on past experiences, it is unlikely that the news will be positive. The club is preparing for the possibility that Moreno will have to take time off again, but the question is how long he will be out.
Moreno has only been able to start seven games this season, but he had recently been playing at a high level and showing signs of consistency. His teammates recognize the importance of having him on the field, as he creates many scoring opportunities. As one of his teammates, Ayoze, said after the win against Valladolid, “With Gerard, you just have to worry about being in the right place.” For now, it seems that Moreno will not be able to play in the upcoming game against Las Palmas.
