Midfielder Arrascaeta had a fracture in his right collarbone confirmed after Flamengo’s match against Estudiantes (ARG). Given the situation, Mengo’s number 10 is expected to be sidelined for a long period.
According to information released by Paramount+, the expectation is that Arrascaeta will return to action in four to six weeks. In other words, he could be out for more than a month and miss several Flamengo matches.
It is important to stress that this is an average estimate for recovery from this type of fracture. In other words, depending on how the healing progresses, the return timeline for Arrascaeta could be shorter or longer.
Right at the start of the first half, Arrascaeta ended up colliding with Pivoti. As he fell, Flamengo’s number 10 landed on his arm and felt severe pain. Shortly afterward, the Uruguayan received treatment on the pitch, but was replaced by Carrascal. After leaving the field, the player had to go to the hospital for imaging tests.
Given the situation, Arrascaeta will miss Flamengo’s upcoming run of matches this season. As a result, the Uruguayan will be unavailable for fixtures in the Brasileirão, the Libertadores, and the second leg of the Copa do Brasil against Vitória, in Salvador.
Without Arrascaeta, Flamengo will take the field this Sunday (03) to face Vasco in the 14th round of the Brasileirão. Kickoff is at 4:00 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover all the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on its website and social media.
