Pau Ribas, down in Juventut due to a muscle tear

MADRID, 13 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Joventut Badalona guard Pau Ribas has suffered a myofascial tear in the middle third of the adductor longus of his right leg, which is why he will miss his team’s next games, being a doubt for the Copa del Rey, which will be played between the 16th and on February 19 in Badalona.

“The player has a myofascial tear in the middle third of the long adductor of the right leg. The evolution of the injury will mark his return to the courts,” the club said in a statement on its website.

The Catalan, who did not play last Saturday’s Endesa League match against Coviran Granada due to muscle discomfort, did participate on Tuesday in the Eurocup clash against Germani Brescia in which he played 19 minutes in the defeat of his team (85-75).

The loss of one of the leaders of the ‘Penya’ comes just over a month before the Copa del Rey begins in Badalona, ​​a competition for which the Catalan team is already classified as host. The third most successful team in the Cup, after Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​has not won the title since 2008.
