There is concern at Aris over the condition of Fabiano, who left the game injured shortly before the end of the match against OFI at “Kleanthis Vikelides” Stadium.
The veteran center back suffered an eye injury in stoppage time and had to be helped off the field at a point in the match when all substitutions had already been made. As a result, Aris finished the match with ten players.
The Brazilian is expected to undergo medical tests today to determine the exact extent of the injury and clarify whether he will need to sit out any games. Attention is already turning to the “Yellows’” next game against AEK at Allwyn Arena, as Fabiano is a key player on the defensive line.
After the game, Michalis Grigoriou expressed hope that it wasn’t anything serious, while also describing Fabiano as the team’s leader. “It’s an injury; I hope it’s nothing serious, but we’ll have to see how it goes over the next 48 hours. He’s the leader of our team; I hope it’s not anything serious,” he said.
