Castellón monitor injuries before Girona trip as Jakobsen remains doubtful | OneFootball

CD Castellón enter the week of their Girona visit aiming to regain bodies for a high-demand fixture. The LaLiga Hypermotion leaders have 10 points from 12, but several players have recently been in the treatment room.

According to El Periódico Mediterráneo, the main doubt is Adam Jakobsen. The Danish forward was injured during the warm-up before Sabadell, then missed Celta Fortuna and did not feature against Albacete. His progress will be closely monitored through the week.

Jakobsen has a muscular issue. He returned to training late last week, but was not yet ready to reappear against Albacete. He now has several more days to try to make Montilivi.

At centre-back, Ilias Kostis is advancing in his recovery and could re-enter Pablo Hernández’s plans in the coming weeks. A summer signing, he has yet to debut due to injury. In late August, the head coach said he had begun partial group work and viewed his return as a matter of weeks.

Since then, Kostis has continued to build fitness. This week’s evolution will determine whether he has any chance of featuring at Girona or if his comeback must wait.

Fabrizio Brignani will not be in Montilivi. The Italian defender faces a long absence, which prompted Castellón to bolster the position with Ilias Kostis and Federico Ceccherini. In the best case, Brignani may not return until well into 2027.

Full-back Juanjo Nieto, substituted against Albacete with discomfort, is, in principle, dealing with an issue that should not prevent him being available for the Girona trip.
