The news is bad for Olympiacos regarding Santiago Ese’s injury, as the club’s medical staff’s fears have been confirmed.
The MRI he underwent today (11/9) revealed a tear in the medial collateral ligament of his knee, and the 25-year-old Red-and-White star has already begun his rehabilitation process.

The Piraeus club’s medical staff estimates that he will be sidelined for approximately six weeks. This means the player is out for the remainder of Alguathil’s team’s season, with his return to the field scheduled for early next year.
As a reminder, he left the field with discomfort in the 55th minute of the derby against PAOK, and the doctors’ initial assessment indicated a muscle injury.
