Rayo Vallecano can breathe again with Oscar Valentin. The midfielder had to leave the match against Celta de Vigo after taking a blow to his right knee, an incident that raised concerns about the affected area and the player's signs of pain.

According to information published by MARCA, medical tests have ruled out ligament involvement. The diagnosis given is a knee bruise, so the length of his layoff will depend on how he improves over the coming days.

The news is a relief for the franjirrojo side, who finished the game with several players carrying knocks. In the case of Álvaro García, a confirmed injury will keep him out for several weeks, while the outlook for Valentin is less worrying.

Doubt ahead of trip to Real Sociedad

In Fantasy terms, caution seems to be required. Even though a serious injury has been ruled out, he arrives with a knock and his participation at Anoeta is up in the air. In addition, the possible return of Pathé Ciss could reduce the need to push the Rayo captain if he is ultimately available.
