Boca on alert: key player forced off during training session | OneFootball

Alarms went off during Boca's training: a starting player in Claudio Úbeda's team couldn't finish Wednesday's practice due to a muscle discomfort, and at this time, his presence in the next match is in doubt.

It's about Rodrigo Battaglia, who felt pain in the soleus of his leg and couldn't complete the exercises planned by the head coach for the squad during the training session held at the Ezeiza facility this morning.

Battaglia, doubtful for Monday.

Rodrigo Battaglia is a starter in the team led by Claudio Úbeda, and if it is confirmed that he cannot play, it would be a significant loss for the Xeneize, who will have to adjust, although changes in the lineup were already anticipated.

Rodrigo Battaglia has been playing alongside Leandro Paredes and has felt a good connection with the world champion. Since the arrival of this coaching staff, his position on the field has changed, as he was previously playing as a central defender under Fernando Gago. Although he didn't show his best level in the last match, his performance has been improving since he moved to play in the midfield.

Now, we will have to wait for the evolution of this discomfort to know if he will undergo tests and consequently, if he will be able to play in the match that Boca will play on Monday against Barracas Central.

Úbeda plans changes in Boca

The coach is considering making changes in the starting lineup. He is now attentive to what happens with the midfielder who felt discomfort during training, as well as with Edinson Cavani, who is recovering from his injury and has not yet been able to join the group training.

Úbeda is thinking about changes.

Sifón is waiting to see if he can count on the striker and might break up the double nine formation that includes Miguel Merentiel and Milton Giménez. The coaching staff believes it is necessary to add another forward to the attack or another midfielder to gain play on the wings.
