🚨Breaking: Ángel Di María's injury confirmed | OneFootball

Rosario Central’s hopes have been clouded by news that has the entire city on edge. Angel Di María suffered a muscle injury that has set off alarm bells for the “Canalla” coaching staff. The world champion underwent tests last Monday that confirmed the issue, although the club has yet to release an official medical report with an estimated recovery timeline.

Confirmed absence in the domestic tournament

Because of this physical setback, “Fideo” will miss the Matchday 13 fixture of the Apertura Tournament, in which Central will host Atlético Tucumán. The Rosario club’s absolute priority is to get its biggest star back for the international stage, avoiding any risk of making the injury worse ahead of its toughest challenges.

The target: Independiente del Valle

The main concern is the Copa Libertadores opener. Rosario Central is in Group H and must face Independiente del Valle on April 9 at the Gigante de Arroyito. With barely a couple of weeks to spare, the medical staff is working against the clock so the star can lead the team in his return to South America’s top club competition.
