Malaga: From the successful operation on Genaro to Chavarría’s ordeal

Genaro Rodríguez has undergone successful surgery for the rupture of the external meniscus of his left knee by Dr. Manuel Leyes at the CEMTRO clinic in Madrid. The estimated time for the midfielder’s recovery will be approximately two months.

The Sevillian player was injured during the final stretch of training held last Tuesday. The operation was carried out last Wednesday afternoon. Genaro will thus begin his recovery process in order to be available for the final stretch of the championship with everything at stake.

Despite the fact that it is not a long-term injury, greater than five months, the club maintains the plan to strengthen the team in this final stretch of the winter market. Málaga is looking at the option of being able to bring in another midfielder, a striker without ruling out the possibility of a central defender coming.

This is the second time that Dr. Leyes has operated on a Malaga footballer. The previous one was Luis Muñoz, torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, from which he is recovering very well, although he will miss the rest of the season.

Chavarria’s ordeal

Pablo Chavarría continues with his edema at the level of the major adductor of his right leg. Quite an ordeal for the Argentine this season. Since recovering from his torn ligaments last year in Miranda of Ebro He has suffered two more injuries, the aforementioned and another one last November. A muscle tear in the quadriceps of his left leg forced him to stop again after reappearing in Oviedo, which had him out for more than a month. The Argentine striker is not having any luck this season.

Dani Barrio returns

For the rest Dani Barrio returned to training after having been absent, with the club’s permission, he worked with his teammates in goal Dani Martín and the subsidiary Dani Strindholm. The also subsidiaries Andrés Caro (youth), Haitam, Dani Lorenzo and Julio, along with Kevin, Roberto and Ismael Gutiérrez, with the first team.
