Tomás Belmonte.

Specifically, Tomás Belmonte suffered a grade III muscle injury in his right hamstring. This will cause him to miss the match against the Academy this Saturday, a match scheduled for 16:30 at La Bombonera for the fourth date of the Clausura Tournament.

Additionally, this injury will require a prolonged recovery time. It will take approximately 6 to 8 weeks, as we always mark, the recovery time is estimated and depends on each body.
