USMNT midfielder Luca de la Torre to be out for three weeks with muscle injury

In unfortunate news, Luca de la Torre has a muscle injury that will keep him out of the Celta Vigo lineup for the next three weeks. The team released the news stating that he suffered a grade 1, the least serious of the grades, “fibular rupture.”

Both grade 1 and rupture sound very concerning, but it’s apparently not a serious injury though he’ll have to take some time to recover. The midfielder has amassed nine caps and started the recent friendly against Japan. His injury comes as de la Torre has five appearances for Celta all from the bench.
