Adrian Mazilu (20 years old) “disappeared” from Dinamo's team in the last three games. If he was a reserve in the matches with Universitatea Craiova (Cup) and Rapid (championship), Zeljko Kopic was not included in the Sunday match in Bănie (return with Craiova from the play-off).
The absence of Adrian Mazilu from the team for the trip from Bănie was explained by the president Andrei Nicolescu. The forward is suffering from a groin hernia, a condition that requires a long recovery period, taking him out of Zeljko Kopic's calculations for the latter stages of this season.
If Mazilu's situation is complicated, the technical staff breathes a sigh of relief regarding two other pillars of the team. Cătălin Cîrjan was taken care of in the previous round due to knee pain, but his recovery is going well.
Also, Spain's Alberto Soro pulled off a scare after a violent fall on his left arm. Although a serious shoulder injury was initially suspected, the doctors' verdict was mild: a quickly reduced dislocation with no ligament damage.
Both are expected to return to the first “11” for Sunday's crucial duel with FC Argeș.
The latest information about the injuries suffered by Dynamo players Cătălin Cîrjan, Alberto Soro and Adrian Mazilu
“Soro is ok. He had a dislocated shoulder, they put it back together. The ligament is not affected. We hope he comes back as soon as possible.
Cîrjan's knee was still hurting from the blow. It was a risk and we didn't want to take it then. And Mazilu is suspected of having an inguinal hernia, which is quite serious. But hopefully that will be resolved as well“, Andrei Nicolescu declared, for fanatik.ro.
For Dinamo, the duel at home with FC Argeș follows, in the 8th stage of the play-off. The game was scheduled for Sunday, May 10, starting at 19:00, on the “Arcul de Triumf”.
How Dinamo's first “11” could look like with FC Argeș: Epassy – Sivis, Boateng, Stoinov, Opruț – Cîrjan, Gnahore, Soro – Musi, Pușcaș, Armstrong
