Jeremy Sarmiento, ready to reappear with Brighton and the Ecuadorian team

After more than two months out due to hamstring surgery, Ecuadorian midfielder Jeremy Sarmiento reappeared in training for Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Premier League team reported the recovery of the international with the Ecuadorian team in Tuesday’s session.

“good to see you (Good to see you!), @JeremySarm7ento!” Albion posted on their Twitter account.

It was in his debut game as a starter when Sarmiento suffered a hamstring injury, on December 1, 2021for which he underwent surgery.

In duel against West Ham, in London, the tricolor did not complete the fifteen minutes on the pitch, because at 13 the coach Graham Potter decided to replace him with Solly March. The match was already 1-0 in favor of the Hammers with a goal from Tomas Soucek in the 5th minute, and Sarmiento left the pitch limping due to a bruised left leg.

As a result of the operation and the recovery process that it entails, the Spaniard raised in England missed the double date of the qualifying round in January and February. But he is expected to return with the national team for the decisive days, 17 and 18, of the Qatar World Cup qualifier, scheduled for March 24 and 29.

Sarmiento, 19, along with Moisés Caicedo, 20, are the Ecuadorians who are part of the Brighton & Hove Albion first team. Yesterday, Tuesday, offensive player Billy Arce was released after an agreement between the parties.

Ahead of Saturday’s match against Newcastle United, Albion shared a photo gallery on their official site showing Sarmiento and other players exercising and testing a new Premier League ball.

Graham Potter’s team is in the middle of the table (tenth) in the Premier, with 33 points, far from qualifying for the next edition of the Champions League. His immediate pursuers are Crystal Palace, Leicester City and Aston Villa, with 30 points each. (D)
