Cádiz begins training tomorrow with a notable absence. Chilean midfielder Tomás Alarcón will not train this week with the group and will be out to receive Atlético next Sunday due to a muscle injury. The Chilean, important in Cervera’s plans, left the field of play in the duel against Getafe at minute 56. In the absence of certain medical tests, the time of withdrawal of the South American will depend on the extent of the ailment and its recovery.
Alarcón was one of the many Cadista summer reinforcements and fell on his feet in the team, quickly making a place for himself in the yellow team. SHowever, his tenure at the Alfonso Pérez Coliseum meant his return to the starting eleven after three days of hearing the referee’s opening whistle from the bench. It was not the best day for the interests of those of Cervera who added a loss as important as that of the Chilean to the harsh defeat.
The Cadiz midfield is not having an easy season. Several setbacks have made it impossible for Cervera to draw a stable and durable engine room. Setbacks, yes, in the form of casualties. So much so that this demarcation is the one that has suffered the most injuries. José Mari is the most worrying casualty since it is not known when he will step on the green again after suffering a relapse in his injury.
On the other hand, Jens Jonsson is not being the capital player that was seen last season. The Dane did not have an easy preseason and his start to the campaign was discreet. In addition, he could not enter the last call due to muscle discomfort, worse he has already exercised normally. Also Martín Calderón is injured. The Madrid youth squad, whose injury was never reported, is not being used by Cervera, but gave one more alternative to midfield.
All in all, Alarcón’s downfall comes with the news of Jonsson’s recovery. Now it remains to be seen who will be his companion in the core: Álex Fernández or Fali. Both have already added minutes in this position but their characteristics are different. Both have a good hitting the ball, but the Madrilenian keeps a more offensive and reaching profile than the Valencian, whose natural position is that of central.
