Lopetegui stated, “The most important thing is that he is alive and doing well.
“He shattered his femur, but he’ll heal for sure.
“He’ll need time. It is about time.
“Because, in the end, even though we are disappointed that we have lost one of our most important players, we are relieved that he will be ready.
“Now he’s strong; he’ll undoubtedly recuperate in the next month and be ready to play.
“The first thing is to be a man and then to be a player.”
