Racing de Santander's victory over Elche has left an important concern for the Cantabrian side and also for fantasy managers: Andrs Martn will be out for between six and eight weeks after his knee injury was confirmed.

The player felt the physical problem during the first minutes of the second half and left the pitch almost immediately. Andrs went to the touchline and then to the dressing rooms to be examined by the club's medical staff.

Finally, Matteo Prati came on in his place in the 59th minute.

Medical report: sprain in the right knee

After the first examinations, Racing de Santander has confirmed through an official medical report that Andrs Martn has a sprain in his right knee.

The green-and-white attacker underwent imaging tests during the night after the match against Elche, which made it possible to determine the extent of the injury.

The news is a major setback for Jos Alberto Lpez, who will miss several matches with one of his main attacking references unavailable.

Between six and eight weeks out

Racing has also provided an initial estimate of the recovery timeline. Although the final period will depend on how the knee develops over the coming weeks, Andrs Martn will initially be sidelined for between six and eight weeks.

If these timelines are met, the forward will miss a significant number of LaLiga matches and his return would not come until well into October, always depending on whether his recovery progresses as expected.

A very important blow for Racing and for fantasy

The injury is a tough blow for the Cantabrian team. Andrs Martn is one of the most important pieces in Racing's attack and he had started the season as a key player in Jos Alberto's plans.

The situation also completely changes his fantasy outlook. With an absence estimated at between six and eight weeks, keeping the player throughout his entire recovery period can be difficult in games with limited market and budget.

For Comunio, Biwenger, LALIGA Fantasy and other fantasy managers, Andrs therefore goes from being a simple doubt to becoming a long-term absence that will force managers to seriously consider selling him, especially if his market value begins to drop over the next few days.

From Comuniate, we will keep an eye on his progress and on any new information regarding the forward's recovery timelines.
