translated from Spanish: Exequiel Palacios suffered a torn right ankle ligament

Exequiel Palacios began to gain a place in Germany and during the week he was vital in his team’s victory in the Europa League, scoring a real goal that was also the first in his career as a Bayer Leverkusen player. However, in the complement his departure was given due to injury and this Friday the degree was confirmed. In the 49th minute of the match, the former River left his place to Charles Aranguíz with a lot of pain in his right foot. After the studies carried out, the rupture of one of his ligaments in that area was confirmed, which will require at least a month of recovery. 
This is at least reported by Bayer in a brief official statement and in this way it is a new headache for Lionel Scaloni, since Palacios will miss the triple date of October, where Argentina will face Paraguay, Uruguay and Peru between October 7 and 14. As for the duels he will miss with his club, there are four days of the Bundesliga, in addition to the duel against Celtic of Scotland for the aforementioned Europa League. Thus, it is expected that his return will be from the crossing against Bayern Munich, on the weekend of October 17, or against Betis for the international competition, on October 21.
