Spain’s national soccer team coach Luis de la Fuente has spoken out about Gabi’s injury.
“Spain de la Puente talked about various Barcelona players in recent interviews,” said “Barca Universal,” which deals with Barcelona news on the 12th (Korea time). De La Puente also talked about Gabi’s injury.
Gabi is a midfielder that Barcelona is looking forward to. He grew up in Barcelona La Masia and made his debut on the adult stage in the 2021-22 season. The evaluation was good. Some praised his talent to succeed Andrés Iniesta.
Gabi had two goals and six assists in 47 matches in his first season alone. He also clinched a spot in Barcelona’s midfield in the 2022-23 season. The same was true last season. Notably, he became the youngest player to play in 100 matches in Barcelona’s La Liga against Osasuna.
Then came the unexpected injury. Gabi was injured during the 10th game of the Euro 2024 qualifying round against Georgia in November last year. In the 19th minute of the first half, Gabi collided with an opponent while taking a pass from Ferran Torres. Gabi collapsed on the ground and complained of pain, and was eventually substituted.
According to Spain’s Lelebo, Gabi cried, “No way. I have to run.” “This is the most bitter victory I’ve ever experienced in my life,” Spanish coach Luis de la Fuente said after the match. “This is a very difficult and difficult time for Gabi. We are devastated.”
His condition was not good. The first test result after the match was rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee. Afterwards, a thorough examination was conducted, and the result was worse. Barcelona officially announced that “medical tests showed complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee and cartilage injury in the meniscus.”
Barcelona was reportedly very angry at the time. Spain had been confirmed to advance to the Euro 2024 finals ahead of the match against Georgia. Gabi was under controversy over his overwork. He was dissatisfied with the excessive participation even though it was not an important game.
De La Puente recently said, “I was annoyed that people took advantage of this situation, which turned out to be an accident. Unfortunately, it is the same thing that is happening now, like injuries to Rodri, Carvajal and Ter Stegen. This is football.” 메이저놀이터
