The Ponferradina can finish emptying the infirmary this week (with the exception of Manu Hernando, who will not play again this season), after Jon Bolo confirmed this Friday that Ríos Reina is finally recovered of his injury and could even enter the squad for Sunday's game against Las Palmas.
“We have spoken with him and with the doctors and we will wait for training on Saturday to see his evolution,” revealed the Deportiva coach, who He confessed that “in principle he was not going to be here for this weekend, but seeing how well he is, tomorrow we will make a decision”.
Ríos Reina has been in the dry dock since last December 11, when he played at Anxo Carro against Lugo. That week he was injured in training and later, at the beginning of the year, COVID passed. Given the lack of improvement in his discomfort, in February he underwent an operation to definitively solve an injury that the club has only reported as “muscular discomfort” for the footballer.
Manu, operated successfully
The central also underwent surgery this week Manu Hernando, who tore the internal lateral ligament of his right knee in January. In principle, a conservative treatment was chosen, but after two relapses, the player on loan from Real Madrid finally agreed to undergo surgery to repair his joint.
