[Saba Sports News] Real Madrid officially announced an injury update recently, stating that centre-back Raúl Asencio has been diagnosed with bacterial enteritis and is recovering at home. According to Spanish media, Asencio has lost 6 kilograms over the past two weeks due to gastroenteritis and will miss this round’s La Liga match against Alaves as a result. Asencio previously missed the away game against Bayern Munich because of gastroenteritis, and his condition has not improved to date. He went to the hospital on Saturday morning for further tests and rehydration treatment. Asencio is suffering from a bacterial imbalance caused by a pathogen that has been spreading rapidly in the Community of Madrid, with a large number of cases detected. He is not the only club member to have fallen ill. It is reported that Asencio fell ill on the eve of Real Madrid’s trip to Munich.
The editor believes that Real Madrid took isolation measures in response to the emergency, and this decision proved to be extremely wise. Had the bacteria spread throughout the entire squad, the team would have faced a serious threat.
