Enes Ünal leaves Getafe with a doubt before San Mamés

Getafe CF

Getafe faces uncertainty as it prepares for its next LaLiga match. Enes Ünal left the game against Lugano with discomfort, and whether he will be available this Sunday against Athletic Club will depend on how he progresses over the next few hours.

The blow came in the closing stages of the European match

The Turkish forward started the match on Thursday, corresponding to the second round of the league phase of the UEFA Conference League. His challenge came in the 66th minute, when he replaced Iván Azón.

Ünal played the final minutes, but a tough challenge left him with ankle discomfort. The blue-and-white attacker was able to complete the match, although he did so with a slight limp that keeps the Getafe coaching staff on alert.

His progress will determine his availability

For now, there is no medical information confirming a serious injury. The discomfort could be linked to an ankle twist, although it will be necessary to monitor the player before drawing conclusions or determining whether he needs additional tests.

The recovery session after the European fixture will be used to assess the forward's physical condition. José Bordalás has barely three days to prepare for the next appointment, so he will be watching Ünal's sensations and how his ankle responds.

The blue-and-white side will visit Athletic Club at 14:00 this Sunday at San Mamés, in a match corresponding to Matchday 10 of LaLiga. With no final medical assessment yet, the Turkish forward's participation remains up in the air.
