Girona problems pile up as injury list reaches double figure

Girona problems pile up as injury list reaches double figures

Alejandro Frances of Girona FC during the UEFA Champions League match, date 3 between Girona FC and SK Slovan Bratislava played at Montilivi Stadium on October 22, 2024 in Girona, Spain.

Girona’s start to the season has been challenging, to say the least.

Saturday’s defeat at Las Palmas was a second loss in a row for the Catalans, who are currently languishing in 13th place in the La Liga standings – what’s more, they are also in the midst of a seriously worrying injury crisis.

Daley Blind returned against Las Palmas after four weeks out, but fellow defender Alejandro Frances sustained an injury during the first half in Gran Canaria – as per Diario AS, he joins Oriol Romeu, Yaser Asprilla, Christian Portu, Abel Ruiz, Ivan Martín, Viktor Tsygankov, Jhon Solís, Bryan Gil and Pau Lopez on the treatment table.

As a result, Girona will not be able to rest many first team players for the midweek trip to Extremadura, whom they face in the Copa del Rey – the knock-on effect is that those that play won’t be able to have a proper rest before next weekend’s La Liga fixture against Leganes.
