Valencia ‘to monitor’ David Otorbi after groin tests | OneFootball

Valencia CF are closely tracking 18-year-old winger David Otorbi, who is managing groin discomfort. On Thursday he travelled with a member of the club’s medical staff for tests to better identify the source of the pain. He is still training despite the issue, with doctors monitoring his daily response.

Radio Marca Valencia revealed the situation. Against Real Sociedad, he began on the bench, came on at half-time for Ugrinic, and immediately injected pace into Valencia’s attack, making a major impact on the game.

Otorbi has been one of the standout performers in recent weeks and aims to earn a stable place in Javier Aguirre’s plans. Valencia recently extended his deal after a season consolidating with Mestalla and edging towards the first team.

By profile he is the most natural winger in the squad and Aguirre must look to exploit that quality amid a shortage of resources after a poor summer window.

With 10 days until the trip to Racing de Santander, the new manager will keep a close eye on Otorbi’s progress. The teenager now has a chance to convince Aguirre and secure a role providing much-needed threat from wide areas.
