Tarragona to start for Unión, no doubts before Gimnasia trip | OneFootball

After alarms were raised over his absence from Wednesday’s football practice, Unión brought calm: Cristian Tarragona will start this Saturday against Gimnasia de Mendoza, for the third round of the Clausura Tournament. The forward is dealing with a muscle issue, but the decision to rest him was solely aimed at reducing his workload to avoid greater risks.

The red-and-white striker did not take part in the football practice led by Leonardo Madelón, a situation that created uncertainty about his presence for the match in Mendoza. However, the coaching staff confirmed that the attacker has progressed favorably and will return to training normally starting this Thursday.

In this way, Tarragona will be in the starting lineup for a key match for El Tatengue, where he would form the attacking duo alongside Mauro Luna Diale. In addition, the club’s management continues working to lift the transfer bans that would allow the coach to count on the new signings in this stage of the championship.

The presence of his main attacking reference is good news for Madelón, who is looking to earn a positive result away from home and maintain the team’s footballing growth at the start of the Clausura.
