Ruiz de Galarreta, out of Athletic due to a moderate muscle injury

MADRID, 24 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

This Friday, Athletic Club announced the absences due to injury of midfielder Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta, due to a muscle problem in the femoral biceps of his left leg, and Álvaro Djaló, with a sprain in the external lateral ligament of his right ankle, according to a statement .

“The player Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta had to be substituted in the 67th minute of the match against Besiktas after suffering a moderate muscle injury to the femoral biceps of his left leg,” the club reported on its website.

The 31-year-old midfielder started 2025 with a hamstring injury that made him miss the Copa del Rey round of 32 match against Logroñés (0-1) and the semifinal against FC Barcelona (0-2) of the Spanish Super Cup. Then he returned in the round of 16 of the Cup against Osasuna (2-3) and repeated in LaLiga against Celta (1-2) in Balaídos. Now, he could be out for about a month.

In addition, Athletic reported the injury of attacker Álvaro Djaló, who suffers a sprain to the external lateral ligament of his right ankle. Both the midfielder and the striker are “pending development”, although they are certain to be absent for this Sunday’s match (6:30 p.m.) on matchday 21 of LaLiga EA Sports against CD Leganés and for the last matchday of the league phase of the Europa League against Viktoria Plzen next Thursday (9:00 p.m.).
