Pneumonia separates Paulino until 2022

The bilateral bacterial pneumonia that Paulino suffers will also separate him, except for a capital surprise, from the last game of the year against Leganés. The attacker did not play the Cup match against Rayo Majadahonda and did not appear this Wednesday at the team’s training session at La Rosaleda. Paulino is recovering at home, relatively well, but the sources consulted by AS see it as practically unfeasible that he could be in good condition. to compete fully this coming Saturday.

Paulino’s is the eighth loss of a Malaga that is very depleted in terms of the number of troops. José Alberto does not lose hope of recovering any of the injured with a view to the important game on Saturday against Leganés (4:00 p.m.). But it does not seem easy for that to happen. Luis Muñoz will be low throughout the course. Ramón and Kevin will not reach the stake, Juande and Jozabed continue on the sidelines and they have it very difficult, while Ismael Gutiérrez and Antoñín did show themselves on the pitch this Wednesday, although on the sidelines of the group. The last two have one more option to be available, although they are serious doubt for Saturday.

Within the Málaga dressing room they are aware that the match against Leganés is not just another match. Amorebieta broke the idyllic journey of the Blue and White team through La Rosaleda and another setback at home would confirm the team’s downward line in recent weeks. José Alberto and his players are aware that it is urgent to achieve a victory to dispel doubts, return to the fans the share of lost enthusiasm and regain their strength at home.
