El Tri Worries Grow Over Mora's Unclear Recovery
19 Feb
Summary
- 17-year-old Gilberto Mora has been injured for over a month.
- His groin injury, 'Pubalgia,' has no clear return timeline.
- Concerns are rising within the Mexican national team for the young star.
Mexican national team wonderkid Gilberto Mora has been out of action for over a month due to a lingering groin injury, causing significant concern within El Tri. The 17-year-old midfielder has been dealing with 'Pubalgia,' the same condition that affected other players.
Tijuana's conservative treatment approach has yielded no clear timeline for Mora's return, despite ongoing communication with the national team. Mexico national team president insisted on respecting the club's communication preferences while assuring close contact regarding Mora's rehabilitation and hoping for his swift return.
Manager Sebastián Abreu stated the ultimate goal is Mora's readiness for the World Cup, emphasizing a day-by-day approach without specific dates. This situation may force coach Javier Aguirre to seek midfield alternatives for the upcoming March international friendlies, potentially giving opportunities to players like Álvaro Fidalgo and Obed Vargas.
