Accurate La Liga injury information with updates from Liga 123 & Iberdrola
Latest updates throughout La Liga 1 / 2 / 3
Villarreal were without Juan Foyth (biceps femoris muscle injury of the hamstrings) and Gerard Moreno (soleus muscle injury of the calf) for the Mallorca game on Saturday. Both players were injured against Elche a week ago. They joined Francis Coquelin (Achilles Tendon surgery), Paco Alcácer (soleus), and Rubén Peña (ACJ sprain of his left shoulder) who are already on Unai Emery’s injury list.
Ansu Fati at Barća sustained an injury to the tendinous aspect of the hamstring muscle of the left thigh against Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey match and is said to be “reluctant” to undergo surgery on this. A decision will be made on Monday after discussions between the player and the medical team.
Real Madrid had Marco Asensio unavailable against Elche in the league this weekend after being injured in Saudi Arabia. He missed the Copa del Rey game in midweek as a result. Thibault Courtois and Karim Benzema are back, having missed Thursday’s game but Dani Carvajal is still out due to COVID. Gareth Bale is in the squad again.
Like most clubs across the leagues, anyone in need of treatment and/or rehab will have to be considered within the current COVID protocols. Obviously if any players test positive then treatment will be on hold until a negative test is returned.

The tricky subject of medical confidentiality in football
Gareth Bale and Dani Carvajal asked Real Madrid not to release details of their recent injuries...
Round up of injuries in La Liga Iberdrola
Sophie Istillart of Athletic Club sustained an ACL tear in the match against Levante on Sunday and will undergo right knee surgery on February 1st.
Paula Nicart of Sevilla is currently recovering from left knee surgery ten days ago following some recent discomfort. Further details will follow.
Further investigations on Mari Paz Vilas' injury sustained against Villarreal in December revealed a bimalleolar sprain involving both sides of the ankle. Return to play will depend on progress. Often bimalleolar ankle injuries can be associated with instability so Betis are unlikely to rush Mari Paz back before she is fully fit.
Aitana Bonmatí of Barća has been ruled out for around three weeks with a soleus muscle injury of the right calf.
Malena Ortiz Cruz has signed for Swiss side Servette Geneva after announcing her departure from Real Madrid despite working back to full fitness after sustaining an ACL injury in April 2021.
