Among the good news that the party of the
Atlético de Madrid in The Burgo de Osma, was the return to the fields of Santiago
Arias. The Colombian right-back, left midway through the second half, replacing the injured Fran Gonzalez.
The partner was seriously injured nine months and 13 days ago. The player of the Athletic he had to spend a blank season after he was injured on October 10, 2020 with Colombia in an official competition match.
For him, the season in which he had been loaned to the Bayer Leverkusen. Barely completed the first quarter of an hour of play, he had to be urgently removed from the court on a stretcher after a tackle by a rival that caused a fibula fracture with damage to his ankle.
An injury that forced him to undergo surgery. I had only been able to play one game with him Bayer before that. In his transfer operation a purchase clause of ten million euros was included that the German team obviously did not execute because he could not see him in competition.
FUTURE ON THE WING
Now, Arias has a contract with him Athletic until 2023. But there is a problem because right now the rojiblanco team has an excess of non-EU players and he is one of them. That is, it is one of those who have more options to leave. In fact, the initial idea was for him to come out on loan for the next course, but it will ultimately depend on the configuration of the squad.
