Unión explain Alessio and Basabe absences in Liga Nacional 🏀 | OneFootball

Club Atlético Unión has issued an official statement announcing two significant absences from its basketball squad ahead of the upcoming National League fixtures.

The team will be unable to count on two key players for different reasons, as detailed in the club’s letter.

Emiliano Basabe absent due to family matters

Player Emiliano Basabe is not part of the delegation that traveled for the upcoming games. The club reported that Basabe remained in the capital city of Santa Fe due to “family matters,” without providing further details.

Ignacio Alessio suffers relapse of lumbar injury

The other confirmed absence is that of the team captain, Ignacio Alessio. The center suffered a recurrence of his lumbar spine injury, which prevented him from traveling with the rest of the squad.

Unión’s statement notes that Alessio’s recovery time is “uncertain,” which is a concern for the coaching staff and the team’s supporters. Unión will have to face its upcoming challenges in the National League with these two sensitive absences, restructuring its rotation and game plan.
