The forward is suffering from a knee ailment that is not allowing him to train normally.
The initial idea of Leonardo Madelón was to repeat the lineup for the fourth consecutive match last Friday against Aldosivi, but this could not happen because Marcelo Estigarribia is suffering from severe knee pain that prevents him from training normally with the rest of his teammates.
What is striking is that, according to what Radio Gol was able to find out, the pain sometimes occurs in both knees, which undoubtedly causes the player greater discomfort.
Therefore, it remains to be seen what will happen with Chelo in these upcoming matches, as it seems unlikely that he will be able to travel to Santiago del Estero to face Central Córdoba next Friday.
