translated from Spanish: Reinaldo Rueda: “We have to see what’s going to happen to Alexis at Inter, whether he’s operated on or not”

The coach of the Chilean national team, Reinaldo Rueda talked about everything. From Claudio Bravo’s relationship with Arturo Vidal, the lack of goal and even the injury of Alexis Sánchez, a subject in which he even deepened and made it clear that the tocopillano could even be operated on.” The dislocation of left ankle butone tendons with reticulum commitment was the diagnosis delivered by ANFP about Sanchez’s injury in the match against Colombia. But apparently the ailment seems to be more serious. “We have to see what’s going to happen to Alexis at his club in Italy, whether he’s operated or not, whether he plays the Champions League or not,” DT said at a press conference. “We may not have it for January or February, but at the beginning of the Qualifiers. Let’s see what diagnosis they make of Alexis’s situation, which is decisive for the offensive part of us,” he added. On the lack of goal in the Rueda team he added that “we are looking for variants in the attack, but so far we have not been able to achieve that efficiency that is required. I hope this bad streak can change in the face of the Qualifiers.” Edu (Vargas) has not had a positive streak again, Nico (Castillo) was also injured. All of that is transferred to the National Team. It’s transferring your moment in your clubs to the national team and we’re on that hardship and bad streak that I hope in the following months can be overcome to have that peace of mind of being able to score on the rival moves,” he said. The head of the Red bank also reflected on the conflict between Bravo and Vidal. “They are mature men who love the national team and that above the team and the Chilean flag there is nothing. You must contribute your share of social responsibility with your role in this area and never touch it at all again,” the Colombian emphatically approached the press. Finally, following the departure of Fabián Orellana and Paulo Díaz of the national team, Rueda said that the striker had muscle fatigue and preferred that he will play against Barcelona for La Liga with his team Eibar. Instead, by Paulo Díaz, he said that “he is not a starter in River Plate, only in the league and not in Copa Libertadores. His illusion is to play the Cup and that suits us,” he said.
