Carlos Gurezo sustained an injury just before the start of the World Cup. His participation is in jeopardy.
For Carlos Gruezo, the dream of participating in the World Cup with Ecuador in Qatar hangs in the balance. In the 0-1 defeat against Bochum on Saturday, the defensive midfielder was replaced in the 29th minute due to injury.
After Gruezo realized he couldn’t go any further, he couldn’t hide his frustration and had to be comforted by his teammates. Shortly before that, Jeffrey Gouweleeuw had to leave the pitch with an injury.
Apparently, however, Gruezo was lucky on Saturday. Like the Ecuadorian TV station Gamavision and the Colombian newspaper El Heraldo report, a serious thigh injury could be ruled out in the 26-year-old after initial examinations. According to this, Gruezo should start his journey to the national team today and start his rehabilitation with his colleagues in the preparation camp in Spain.
An official statement from Augsburg on the extent of the injury is still pending.
