Mauro Arambarri is not training with the group and the alarms are going off at Getafe. Quique warned in a press conference that they had demanded a lot from their players for a long time and it was normal that it had consequences. The absence of the Uruguayan midfielder would be a notable setback for the Madrid coach, who will also not be able to count on Aleñá, Cuenca and Damián Suárez during his visit to Cornellá. In this way, the usual midfield would be greatly diminished and only Maksimovic would remain.
Luckily for Getafe, the winter market was very fruitful and the alternatives are guaranteed. Óscar Rodríguez will be Aleñá’s substitute and there are still three other midfielders left if Arambarri has to be replaced. Florentino and Okay with a more physical profile and Gonzalo Villar with more quality.
Arambarri missed three games due to injury early in the season which resulted in just as many defeats for Getafe. Those were other times and now there is much more confidence within the team and also more possibilities to cover absences. The azulones enter a decisive phase in search of tranquility and Quique hopes to be able to count on his entire squad as soon as possible. In Barcelona it will not be like that.
