Rubén Vargas was returning after the incident on November 24 in the match against RCD Espanyol in Cornellà. His return was scheduled for the match against Levante UD, but it did not happen until this Monday. After the *ovation* that accompanied his entrance by Peque Fernández in the 59th minute, the forward had to request the substitution in the 67th minute and was replaced by Adnan Januzaj. The *Seville side* thus loses its intended offensive reference.

The return that ended in a scare

The club reported "a new injury to the left hamstring", which occurred in Monday's match against Celta de Vigo at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán, home of Sevilla FC. Vargas, who had been sidelined for two months, could barely participate before feeling the discomfort that led to his substitution. For Matías Almeyda, the news represents an immediate setback in his attacking plan.

Medical Report and Timelines

The club details that the Swiss player will be sidelined for between *five and seven weeks*, a similar period to his previous absence. Thus, the idea of a progressive reintroduction that had already been considered for the match against Levante UD disappears. The *celestial side* was the opponent for his return, but the reappearance turned into a *frustrated comeback* that forces a rearrangement of the offensive rotation while the player completes his recovery.
