Russo in hospital for further tests, misses Boca training session | OneFootball

Miguel Ángel Russo, who was hospitalized last Monday morning at the Fleni clinic due to dehydration and was discharged a few hours later, was admitted to a sanatorium in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires this Wednesday for medical check-ups, which were scheduled. He will spend the night there and is expected to return home on Thursday.

After being present on Tuesday, the Boca coach was absent from Wednesday evening's practice at La Bombonera for previously scheduled medical tests. In his place, the training was led by Claudio Úbeda and Juvenal Rodríguez.

In early September, Russo had also spent a week at the Fleni institute due to a urinary infection that was aggravated by his delicate health. That hospitalization prevented him from leading some of the training sessions in this third cycle at the club.

Miguel was discharged on September 5, and the club chose to give him more days to recover. He only rejoined the practices the following Thursday, in the training that the team carried out at La Bombonera before the trip for the clash against Rosario Central.

After that match against Canalla, which ended 1-1, the coach expressed his discomfort at the press conference about the rumors that had emerged about his health. "There were many who said nonsense. The one who knows about his health is oneself," he shot at the journalists present.

Regarding the team, even though there are still several days left for the match against Defensa y Justicia, which will be next Saturday at 19 in the Norberto Tomaghello and to which the Xeneize will be able to bring visiting public, Edinson Cavani has not improved from his strain in the right psoas and his presence against the Halcón is practically ruled out.
