Diego Martínez hopes to have Machís at the beginning of the year

Darwin Machís did not play this Wednesday in Valdebebas against Real Madrid due to a fibrillar injury in the hamstring muscle of his right leg, which forces him to do physical therapy and gym work and which will force him to miss another match.

The Venezuelan was injured last Sunday during the duel against Betis after feeling some discomfort that forced him to request the change. The load of matches that Granada has this season, 24 (the most in Spain), takes its toll. The coach, Diego Martínez, will not be able to count on his star against Valencia on the 29th. Nor does it look like we can see him on January 3 against Eibar or against Leonesa in the Cup on January 6, already in the new year. The objective is that it can be against Barcelona (January 9) or Osasuna (day 12).

So far this season Darwin Machís has played 13 league games, 858 minutes, in which he has scored two goals and has given three assists. To this palizón we must add another six games in the Europa League. Over 1,000 minutes at a fast pace.

Roberto Soldado, in the interview he gave to AS, stressed that red wine “is already a star, but we say it with a small mouth.” He is an explosive and brilliant footballer. Essential for Diego Martínez.
