Luís Guilherme’s lay-off revealed, Sporting can’t believe it | OneFootball

Sporting continues to deal with several physical problems in the squad and has gained yet another headache: Luís Guilherme is injured and the news coming from Alvalade is not good. The Brazilian could be sidelined for up to four weeks.

The 20-year-old winger suffered a grade 2 sprain in his left foot, an injury that will keep him out of the match against Alverca – in addition to already missing the match against Bodo/Glimt – and could mean an absence of up to four weeks.

Besides missing the next league fixture, Luís Guilherme is also at risk for important upcoming matches, including the clash with Santa Clara and the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals against Arsenal at Alvalade. His recovery will be reassessed during the FIFA break.

The Sporting medical report remains full. Geovany Quenda and Fotis Ioannidis are out of contention until the international break, while Ricardo Mangas and Giorgi Kochorashvili are still doubtful, depending on final evaluations in training.

This season, Luís Guilherme — valued at 10 million euros — has played 17 official matches: five in the Premier League (West Ham), eight in Liga Portugal Betclic, two in the Portuguese Cup, one in the Champions League, and one in the League Cup.
