Asier Illarramendi warmed up last Sunday at Reale Arena for the first time this season. He had been injured in August, before the old Anoeta completed its spectacular renovation, and since then he had only been able to be in the stands. Finally, Imanol Alguacil chose other alternatives for that match against Osasuna and Illarra was left without playing a single minute. Apparently, there was no drama, there would be an opportunity to play during the marathon of games ahead.

However, fate had prepared another blow to the captain of the Royal Society. In training Monday, in an area where he had already suffered from discomfort, he noticed a puncture that doctors have diagnosed as "a grade 2 injury to the adductor muscle of the left hip," the club 'txuriurdin has reported. '.

With the end of the competition barely a month away, Illarramendi will hardly be able to dress short again this season, as successful for Real as it is tragic for him. Nor will Luca Sangalli , who will have to undergo knee surgery, return before the next course, while the young Ander Barrenetxea was injured in the warm-up of the duel against Osasuna and it is also difficult for him to play more this season. Accumulation of problems for Imanol Sheriff in just three days.

After completing the first two meetings of the course on visits to Mestalla and Son Moix, Illarra had to withdraw from the San Mamés derby in 35 minutes. A slip in a set with Unai López caused the entire weight of his body to fall on the left ankle. An ugly twist that also hid a fracture in the fibula that forced him to go through the operating room and undergo an indefinite discharge.

When football stopped, back in March, the Gipuzkoan midfielder was in the last stretch of his recovery phase. On the 8th, a week before the Alarm State was decreed, he trained with his teammates for the first time since August and aimed at luxury reinforcement for the remainder of the season, with his eyes fixed on the Cup final that had to be played in April.

"We have had two months of hiatus. It has been a long time, but people like me have perhaps come a little better to recover better from long injuries," said just a week ago Illarra, who, except express recovery, will close the season with just 215 minutes in three games and more than a year without playing a game. And without being able to release the renovated Reale Arena, of course.
