The defeat against Colón is not the only headache in Boca.
In case he was missing something else, he added the serious injury of
Frank Fabra
.
The Colombian winger was injured by a right knee injury against Colón and entered the locker room assisted by teammates and with tears in his eyes.
This Monday morning the corresponding studies were carried out and the medical report was not the most encouraging.
"
Frank Fabra: sprain of the internal lateral ligament of the right knee
," Boca posted on his social networks as a statement from the club's official medical department.
It is the first casualty suffered by coach
Jorge Almirón
, even before formally taking over from Hugo Ibarra.
Despite the fact that this morning the Colombian entered the venue simply walking with discomfort, accompanied by Dr. Agremi, the injury he suffered will take him away from the courts for at least a month.
That is why, except for a miracle, he will not be able to be present in the Superclásico on May 7 at the Monumental stadium.
Likewise, the degree of the sprain is still unknown, so it is not known exactly how long the 32-year-old player will be off the pitch, but it does seem confirmed that he will also watch the classics against San Lorenzo and Racing from
the
outside
,
adding to the next two Copa Libertadores dates, against Deportivo Pereira and Colo Colo.
The left back had entered 66 minutes into the match and had to leave at 81 due to this injury that led him to not even be able to run during his last moments on the field of play.
He didn't have time to generate great participations, only getting booked in one of the few plays in which he intervened.
At first, the club was concerned about the existence of a cruciate ligament injury, which Fabra already suffered in mid-2018. Likewise, the player will miss the brutal series of matches that await Boca approximately every three days.
