Barcelona SC raises concerns ahead of Noche Amarilla in Quito: Joao Rojas under evaluation
Barcelona SC is facing some concerns regarding key player Joao Rojas' physical condition ahead of the Noche Amarilla event in Quito.
Barcelona SC is approaching the Noche Amarilla with growing concerns about the fitness of Joao Rojas, one of the team's key offensive players. Under the guidance of head coach César Farías, the team is worried about Rojas' condition following a facial injury sustained in a recent friendly match against Inter Miami. Due to this setback, Rojas has been excluded from training sessions and is likely to miss the upcoming friendly against Aucas at the Estadio Olímpico Atahualpa.
The medical staff of the club is set to conduct a progressive evaluation over the coming days to ascertain Rojas' fitness level. Though the situation is alarming for the team, a silver lining for Farías is that Rojas is not dealing with a muscular injury, indicating that the concern may not lead to a more serious issue. However, Rojas' potential absence adds to the club's troubles, especially with Leonai Souza already sidelined.
As the team prepares for the significant event of Noche Amarilla, fan anticipation is mixed with concerns over the squad's readiness. The match against Aucas will be crucial for Barcelona SC to establish their form and showcase their preparations to the supporters. Thus, the situation surrounding Rojas is being closely monitored, as his involvement could significantly impact the team's performance in the upcoming events.
