He took over the position after Tripichio and Arias’ physical problems; but he will leave the team due to a sprained ankle caused by stepping wrong on the hotel stairs while taking photos with Ciclón fans.
With the return of Romaña, the San Lorenzo team that will visit Godoy Cruz
San Lorenzo does not navigate calm waters. In addition to his irregular sporting situation, which finds him more involved in the fight for relegation than for the title, there are debts with the squad, managerial problems, and now even one of the most unusual injuries: Gonzalo Luján sprained his ankle greeting people at the Mendoza hotel and will not be in the resumption of the match against Godoy Cruz.
The 22-year-old right back had been a starter because his competitors in the position had suffered the same fate as him, although in more conventional conditions. Nicolas Tripichio (clavicle fracture) and Nahuel Arias (pubalgia) are part of an infirmary that today added one more patient.
The incident occurred on Friday night, when The team came out to the door of the Hyatt Hotel, in Mendoza, and approached to greet the public. While Luján was taking photos with the fans, he stepped wrong on a step and severely sprained his ankle. The sprain is not serious, but it will prevent him from being against Godoy Cruz this afternoon.
Given the absence of fit right backs in the squad, Leandro Romagnoli will appeal to Fabricio Lópezwhich will debut in the First Division. The 21-year-old kid who arrived in 2023 on loan from Deportivo Armenio had been playing in the Reserve and has not yet gained minutes in the first team.
The curse of the sides in San Lorenzo added another chapter
Having two right backs injured is really a problem for any team in the world. Add a third, as happened to San Lorenzoit’s already a curse. Luján’s injury is added to those of Tripichio and Ariasforcing Pipi to have to make his debut for a Reserve kid. That is not all, since, in addition, the Ciclón does not have Malcom Braidawho also plays as a winger, although on the left.
