Gago Out for 4 Weeks
By: Corey | September 18th, 2008
As was feared, Fernando Gago will be out for an extended period of time after leaving the field injured against BATE last night.
A statement on the club website read: “Medical tests this Thursday have diagnosed that the Argentinian is suffering from a Grade II fibrilar tear in the femoral biceps of the left muscle.
“The time estimated for his layoff is four weeks.”
Gago will miss the Primera Liga games against Racing Santander, Sporting Gijon, Real Betis, Espanyol and Atletico Madrid, as well as the Champions League ties against Zenit St Petersburg and possibly Juventus.
This is a big blow for the player, who was making his first start of the season last night. We will hope he recovers swiftly and is back in action for us. In the mean time, the possibility of Javi Garcia stepping into midfield has increased, as has De la Red playing alongside Diarra. Wesley Sneijder also will return from action in the next few weeks, but until then, hopefully we can cope. Glad Schuster demanded some midfield options this year though.
