Leganes Coach Gives Update On Injury Suffered By Omeruo In Loss To Barcelona
Published: November 23, 2019Leganes coach Javier Aguirre has provided an update on the injury suffered by Kenneth Omeruo in his side's 2-1 loss to Barcelona in a La Liga match on Saturday afternoon.
The Nigeria international had to make way for Rodrigo Tarín in the 83rd minute after feeling discomfort in his left thigh.
Omeruo's injury has been diagnosed as a muscular problem, the Mexican manager informed reporters at his post-match press conference after today's game at Estadio Municipal de Butarque.
The central defender has been rated as doubtful for Leganes next league match against Sevilla on Sunday, December 1.
Aguirre said : ''They are injuries that can take a while. Omeruo has something muscular and Rosales looks like a sprain."
This season, the former Chelsea defender has been unable to play four straight matches in the Spanish topflight owing to fitness issues, missing games against Osasuna, Villarreal, Levante, Mallorca and SD Eibar.
Leganes are the bottom team in La Liga with only six points from fourteen matches.
