Turkish club Fenerbahce reported a ligament problem in the Tricolor captain’s left ankle.
By injury, Enner Valencia has been admitted to a “conservative treatment” with his club, the Turkish Fenerbahce, less than two weeks before the Ecuadorian soccer team faces the November games of the South American qualifier to the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
The captain and all-time top scorer of the Tricolor (34 goals) played the entire match against Konyaspor on Saturday for matchday 11 of the Turkish Super League. It was a 2-1 defeat for Istanbul, who are seventh in the domestic classification and accumulate three consecutive falls.
On Sunday, Fenerbahce reported injuries to players, including the Ecuadorian: “A ligament injury was detected in Enner Valencia’s left ankle and conservative treatment was considered appropriate.”.
In addition to leading La Tri on the court, the 31-year-old forward is a starter in the team led by Gustavo Alfaro and who is looking for a ticket to Qatar 2022. In October, against Bolivia in Guayaquil (3-0), Valencia – with a double – beat Agustín Delgado (31) as the national team’s top scorer of all time., and against Venezuela in Caracas (2-1) he raised his figure to 34. Both duels were for the World Cup.
Ecuador, third in South America with 17 points on twelve dates, will host Venezuela on Thursday, November 11 and, five days later, will visit Chile on Tuesday 16. The games will be valid for days 13 and 14 of the qualifier, respectively.
