Aitor Fernández out of Euskadi duty with a calf injury
A muscle injury in the inner right calf rules the Osasuna keeper out of Saturday's match against Venezuela, and Arrasate faces a reopened goalkeeping debate.
Aitor Fernández, starting goalkeeper for Osasuna, will miss Euskadi's squad for Saturday's match against Venezuela. According to MARCA, he has a muscle injury in the inner gastrocnemius of his right leg. After tests on Wednesday, it was decided this Thursday that he will combine rest with recovery exercises.
The setback reopens the goalkeeping debate, since coach Arrasate had been rotating Aitor and Herrera between the posts. The squad meets again on Monday at 10:30 at Tajonar. Several Osasuna players are with their national teams this weekend, Budimir among them with Croatia.
