Miguel Gutierrez, operated

Real Madrid and Castilla lose Miguel Gutiérrez for the remainder of the season. The left back of La Fábrica has been successfully operated this Friday abroad on the meniscus of the left knee. A step through the operating room that he had been postponing since November, when he began to suffer problems in that area after a friendly against Rayo. The white youth squad has been seeing how the discomfort gradually increased and in conjunction with Madrid it has been decided not to delay the passage through the operating room any longer. It will be low for about two months, so in practice he says goodbye to the season.

Gutiérrez suffered again from that discomfort in the meniscus last Saturday, in the controversial match of the white subsidiary against Linense, and it was decided not to force against UCAM last Wednesday in the postponed duel of Raúl’s team after seeing him in the evidence that the meniscus was being affected. In the end, the Getafense winger has gone to a specialist to repair part of the meniscus and prevent it from having to be removed, not even partially. From next week he will begin a rehabilitation that will go very smoothly because he would not reach the end of Castilla’s season in time and Ancelotti has not been counting on him in the first team. The intention is that his knee heals without any type of competitive time pressure, with a view to a key preseason in which everything indicates that he will go out on loan to another top level Spanish or European team.

Raúl will have to manage while without one of his strongholds, because Miguel is Castilla’s top assistant and has been the key element along with Arribas’ great leap in the resurgence of the subsidiary in the last month.
