Toma Ertel felt discomfort in his left leg during the match against Mykonos Betsson. He underwent an MRI today (10/19) at Mediterraneo Hospital, where it was determined that he suffered a gastrocnemius strain. He is currently undergoing treatment. His condition will be reevaluated daily by the AEK BC medical staff.
