Colón's injury concerns ahead of the clash with Patronato

The coaching staff led by Iván Delfino is closely monitoring the progress of five key players as they put together the team for the next match. With just a few days to go before the clash against Paraná, all eyes at the Barrio Centenario club are on the medical report, where the recoveries of the main attacking references overlap with some complications in midfield.

The situation with the forwards

Alan Bonansea: He is showing favorable progress from his knee sprain. The coaching staff will keep a close eye on him to determine whether he can be ready in optimal condition, at least to be included in the list of 20 call-ups.
Leandro Garate: He will be pushed hard in today’s training session to assess his physical response. The striker is dealing with a discomfort considered normal, since he had been working on regaining full fitness and unexpectedly had to log minutes after Bonansea’s absence.

Complications in midfield and the transfer market

Federico Lértora: He continues to deal with knee pain. The experienced defensive midfielder will be evaluated day by day by the medical staff to determine whether he can be considered available.
Agustín Toledo: He has a muscle overload in the adductor of his right leg, raising concerns about the rotation in central midfield.
Departure of youth players: On the institutional side, the board continues with its plan to free up budget space and find destinations for sidelined players. On that list is youngster Yunis, although for now the offers presented to him have not been convincing enough for the player.
