Zubimendi, last minute drop for Granada

Martin Zubimendi is out of last minute in the call of Real Sociedad to play this Sunday against Granada at the Nuevo Los Carmenes stadium. The San Sebastian midfielder has not been able to overcome some discomfort he suffered in training last Thursday on the right side of his hip. He was apparently in good condition, but doctors decided to do an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. And the medical tests reveal that it is an ailment that does not allow him to play against the Nasrid team, so he has been left out of the squad list and has not traveled this afternoon with the rest of his teammates.

“In the magnetic resonance made yesterday an injury is observed in the external obturator muscle of said hip”, points out the medical report made public by the Royal Society. The player from the San Sebastian neighborhood of Gros has begun to be treated through physiotherapy and his return to normal activity will be progressive, depending on the evolution of the clinical picture, so It is also a doubt to play next week against Barcelona and to go with the Under-21 National Team, because it was more than foreseeable that he was cited by the coach. What does not seem to be in danger is his participation in the Cup final on April 3 at La Cartuja.

Zubimendi thus joins the rest of the players who have been left out of the squad for Granada due to injury: Aritz Elustondo, Miguel Ángel Moyá, Joseba Zaldua and Luca Sangalli. And to them We must add Nacho Monreal, who in the end has not passed the last test training with the whole group in the last session in Zubieta, and as a precaution it has been decided that he should not travel to Granada and stay in San Sebastián completing his recovery process. So against the Nasrid team, the young Aihen Muñoz will start again on the left side.
