In the press conference after the defeat against Racing de Santander, Marcelino García Tora revealed that Juan Foyth and Sergi Cardona suffered muscle injuries during the match and requested to be replaced in minute 56. The double impact forces a reshuffle in Villarreal, which exits the tournament with a worrying physical report and pending recovery time.

The yellow team acknowledges that both players are awaiting medical tests to determine the definitive diagnosis. Without an official report, the priority is to assess the workload and adjust the work plan, aiming to minimize risks after an elimination that disrupts immediate planning.
