Chavarría falls again

Injuries point to Pablo Chavarría again. Málaga’s Argentinian striker joined the group on Monday after being dropped against Sporting and was injured two training sessions later. It will be low this Saturday against Ibiza. A new ailment that adds to those that he has been chaining after the serious knee injury he suffered last season.

Chavarría ended Tuesday’s training session with discomfort and has undergone an MRI that revealed the existence of edema at the level of the adductor muscle of the right leg. The club has not specified a time off, but he will not be against Ibiza and given his physical evolution in recent months, it remains to be seen if he can reach next week’s match against Mirandés.

Genaro, “imminent” intervention

Málaga, in addition to reporting Chavarría’s injury, has also announced that Genaro Rodríguez, who tore the external meniscus in his left knee on Tuesday, will be operated “imminently”. The communication made by the blue and white club states that the midfielder has traveled to Madrid this morning and will be intervened by Dr. Manuel Leyes (Clínica CEMTRO) as soon as the doctor’s availability and schedule allow it. The time off will depend on how he evolves, but it is estimated that he may be at least a couple of months away from the playing fields.
