The practice of Sevilla this Thursday had to be abruptly interrupted by the injury of Jesús Manuel Corona, a 29-year-old Mexican attacker. According to initial reports, 'Tecatito' had to leave the club's headquarters in an ambulance and the worst was confirmed: he suffered a fracture of the fibula and ligaments in his left ankle.

Initially, coach Julen Lopetegui expressed his concern, although he did not reveal many details to the press. "I can't say more things, I would lie to you. It seems that an ankle was injured. I hope it's as minimal as possible, but it's true that it didn't look good. It was an unfortunate incident. It can be important, so we have to wait," the coach explained.

Shortly after, according to the statement sent by the Spanish institution, it was learned that the player was not involved in any collision, but rather his injury occurred during a play. At that moment, due to the signals shown by the former Porto player, he was urgently transferred to FREMAP.

The analysis at the medical center specified a "fracture of the fibula and deltoid ligament of the left ankle," which will require Jesús Manuel Corona to undergo surgery in the afternoon of this same Thursday. Undoubtedly, it will be a great loss for Sevilla, which had just started its activity in LaLiga Santander.

Likewise, the 'Nervionenses' indicated a detail that causes sorrow for the Mexican national team: 'Tecatito' will be out of the field for four to five months, the time required for his recovery, and he will not have the option to participate in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

Jesús Corona's stay in Sevilla

Jesús Manuel Corona joined Sevilla in early 2022 and played 18 matches in the local tournament in the first part of the year, scoring two goals and providing four assists. The Mexican aspired to establish himself in the 2022-23 season and was a starter in the start of LaLiga Santander (2-1 loss to Osasuna), but now he will have to be patient to play again.
