Sporting face uncertainty over Fotis Ioannidis’ injury | OneFootball

Rui Borges left with two more injured from the Sporting - Vitória de Guimarães match: Eduardo Quaresma and Fotis Ioannidis. While the former has already undergone surgery and will begin his recovery, there are some doubts regarding the physical condition of the Greek international.

The green and white forward was injured right at the 4th minute, when he made a left-footed shot and clashed with an opponent. Ioannidis tried to stay on the field, but about 20 minutes later, he ended up requesting a substitution due to the pain he was feeling.

According to the newspaper Record, the forward will still be reassessed during the breaks by Sporting's Performance Unit office, with the aim of ruling out any sprain in the foot or even in the left knee - the same one he injured against Santa Clara.

Even so, the same source indicates that, initially, Sporting believes that Fotis Ioannidis's injury is not serious and that he will not need much downtime. However, Rui Borges will only be certain once the reassessment is completed.

This season, wearing the Sporting jersey, Fotis Ioannidis – valued at 20 million euros – has played 21 matches. The 25-year-old Greek international forward has played 931 minutes, during which he has scored six goals and provided three assists with the green and white stripes.
