Legia Warszawa: Henrique Arreiol injured, faces long weeks ahead

Legia Warszawa has a problem. Henrique Arreiol, who joined the team a month ago, injured his hamstring.

What happened?

Arreiol was transferred from Sporting and signed a four-year contract. He was happy to join a club with such history. However, he hasn't debuted for the new team yet, and now he has to stop training.

Why is this a problem for Legia?

Legia is left with only two defensive midfielders in the squad: Rafał Augustyniak and Damian Szymański. Coach Edward Iordanescu may try to bring back Claude Goncalves, who is recovering from an injury, or put Marco Burch back in the second line.

What's next?

Legia, after winning against Radomiak, will face Raków Częstochowa away on September 20. This will be a big hit in the 9th round of the Ekstraklasa. After six games, the Warsaw team has 10 points and is in sixth place in the table.
