Brayan Cortés’ injury hit Gustavo Quinteros’ planning hard. According to the medical part of Colo Colo, the goalkeeper suffered a “tear of the internal meniscus in his right knee”. This Monday he had surgery.
A day later, the club updated the physical situation of Cortés through social networks: “The recovery of our goalkeeper begins. With all the claw, Indian!”. The player replied: “Thank you all, let’s go.”
According to the most pessimistic calculations, Cortés could be gone for a month and a half. That would marginalize him from the two games that will be played against Internacional for the Copa Sudamericana. For this reason, in sports management they are already thinking of an alternative: signing a goalkeeper who competes with Omar Carabalí in this period.
Daniel Morón will meet this Wednesday with the representative of Mauricio Viana, Puerto Montt goalkeeper. “It is a conversation of approach to know their conditions”, they say in the directory of Black and White. The former Wanderers is one of the strongest names on the list of candidates.
In any case, in the medical field they affirm that Cortés’s return will depend on how effective the recovery is, and that it could even be sooner than expected. The first few days will be key. For that reason, at the dealership they have not yet closed the discussion on the three positions to be reinforced.
