Real Sociedad's Jon Aramburu: Facing two to three weeks absence

Rotowire• ·

Aramburu (calf) is expected to miss approximately two to three weeks after suffering a muscle tear in the soleus of his right leg during Wednesday's training session, according to Benat Barreto of Diario Vasco.

Analysis:

Aramburu suffered the setback during his first training session back with Real Sociedad after returning from international duty with Venezuela, and while the injury isn't considered serious, he's expected to miss several matches during a congested stretch of the schedule. The right back could be sidelined for as many as five games over the next two weeks, starting with Sunday's clash against Deportivo, though he'll reportedly push to return ahead of schedule. Aramburu has been a workhorse for Sociedad, starting all seven La Liga matches this season and logging 777 minutes across nine appearances in all competitions. With Hector Fort (undisclosed) also dealing with fitness concerns and Alvaro Odriozola (undisclosed) sidelined, coach Pellegrino Matarazzo may have to turn to Luken Beitia, Igor Zubeldia or Pablo Marin to fill the void on the right.
