This issue began on Friday, August 21, when Diego González suffered a blow to the head during the friendly match Real Zaragoza were playing against Bilbao Athletic. After the required observation period, he was discharged from hospital, but the protocol required him to wait before returning to training and to receive medical clearance. For this reason, the center-back trained separately throughout last week.
This week, he began exercising again on Monday. He was part of the group of substitutes for the match against Nástic de Tarragona, as the starters carried out their usual recovery work. On Tuesday, all Real Zaragoza players were given the day off.
WEARING THE HEADBAND
Real Zaragoza returned to training this Wednesday to prepare for their match against Antequera. Diego González was seen wearing the headband that protects his head, precisely where he suffered the impact. He is using it to prevent further problems and keep the area covered in case of another impact.
In principle, the headband is approved for competition. If necessary, he could wear it in this weekend's match against Antequera at Ibercaja Estadio. Barring any surprises, Diego González will start this game.
