Below we will tell you which players from the Celeste Machine could not be available, due to injury or suspension, for the match against Pumas in the first leg of the Clausura 2024 quarterfinals.
Anselmi will have to face this match with some important casualties. Gabriel ‘Toro’ Fernández and Carlos Vargas will not be available for this match, nor the remainder of the season, due to their respective injuries.
To this list of casualties due to injury we must add one more: that of Gonzalo Piovi. The Argentine central defender was injured after the game on matchday 17 against Toluca.
At first it was thought that he would miss the league, but there are possibilities that he could return as soon as the return match against Pumas at the Ciudad de los Deportes Stadium.
