“Unfortunately, football things, in any game it can happen and have an injury. It happened to me. I couldn’t be in the Hong Kong game and it’s a shame because I always want to participate, I want to be there. And even more so when it comes to this type of match, when we travel so far and people are excited to see one of our games,” said the Inter Miami star.
“Hopefully we can come back and we can play another game in Hong Kong and be as present as I am whenever I can. It’s a pity I won’t be able to participate. The discomfort was still there and it was very difficult for me to play.
“I still don’t know if I’ll be able to play or not, but I feel much better and I’m looking forward to it. In the first match of the tour of Saudi Arabia I felt a discomfort in the abductor, so I left. In the next game I tested myself to find sensations. I had an MRI and it showed that it was strained,” he concluded.
