The wave of injuries in the run-up to the 2026 World Cup continues to haunt. Now it was the turn of Nicolás González, who this Tuesday suffered a muscle injury during training with Atlético de Madrid and generated concern both in his team and in the National Team Argentina.
The news was released from Spain by COPE's Partidazo program, through journalist Javi Gómez, who said that the attacker “broke his muscles” during the last practice before the first leg against Arsenal for the Champions League semifinals. Although the affected area has not yet been officially transcended, the first reports indicate that the player would have between three and four weeks off the courts, a period that would leave him out of much of the
season closure in Europe.In this way, the former Argentinos Juniors would miss not only the series against the English team, but also several La Liga matches. If the estimated recovery deadlines are met, he would return just enough for the last Spanish championship date or in an eventual Champions League final
