At the end of last week, Spain suffered a defeat against Georgia, winning with a score of 7-1 against the Eastern European country. A match where Luis de la Fuente, however, saw how several rather important players in his eyes were injured, like Dani Olmo, who was boiling at the start of the season, but also Marco Asensio.

The PSG player suffered a contusion on his foot, and had to leave his partners shortly before half-time. He then left the Spanish selection camp, since he was not fit to play against Cyprus on Tuesday evening. And obviously, the former Real Madrid player will still miss a good number of matches because of this new physical problem.

He will miss important matches

“It is almost certain that we will not be able to count on Olmo and Asensio for the October truce”, indicated Luis de la Fuente, the Iberian coach. La Roja will face Scotland and Norway on October 12 and 15. Which suggests at least a month of absence for Marco Asensio. A period of unavailability which was then confirmed by the coach. There Cadena COPE also mentions a duration slightly longer than the month of absence for the player trained in Mallorca.

Established in 3 of PSG’s 4 matches this season, with 2 goals and an assist on the clock, the Spaniard will therefore miss important matches, he who was among Luis Enrique’s key men at the start of the season. He will therefore be absent for the first two Champions League matches, against Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes on September 19, and at Newcastle on October 4. He will also be unavailable for the Ligue 1 clashes against Nice (09/15), OM (09/24) and Rennes (10/08). He could be back for the duel against Strasbourg on October 22 if all goes well. A first hard blow for him, but also for Luis Enrique…
