Fabio Cardoso will join the list of casualties that Matías Almeyda will have for the matchday 11 matchday of LaLiga 25-26 against Atlético de Madrid that will be played tomorrow, Saturday at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano. The Portuguese central defender did not exercise … this Friday with the rest of his teammates in the last preparatory session before traveling to Madrid and the Argentine coach explained his absence in the press conference prior to the match: “He felt discomfort yesterday in training and is medically seeing if I can count on him or not,” he warned the media.
Following those medical examinations that Almeyda was undergoing, Sevilla has reported that Cardoso suffers a “muscle injury to the soleus of his left leg.” No specific time of absence is specified, but the normal thing is that, at least, the Portuguese center back will be absent from the group dynamics until after the November break, ahead of the match against Espanyol on the 24th.
The Portuguese defender fully enters the Sevilla infirmary alongside Alexis Sánchez. Agoumé also suffers some discomfort, but the French midfielder was already out for the match against Simeone’s team due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
It is not a 25-26 start to the season, his first as a Sevilla player, good for Fabio Cardoso. After joining from Porto, he has only participated in two games, against Rayo Vallecano, in which he played 77 minutes, and precisely in the last one against Real Sociedad, in which he accumulated 52 minutes.
