Diego Lainez had his best moment in Spain since his arrival in 2019, the Mexican suffered more than a year without being considered by the board of directors, with only 2021 as his big rematch and where he apparently started earning a place in the 11th holder of the green-white painting.
Unfortunately it is COVID-19 returned to be present for the footballers, this time being the “Child prodigy” that tested positive.
Given the recovery time that Lainez will have in this case, it is expected that there will be a minimum of 3 games that will be eliminated, being Osasuna in League, vs. Athletic in cup and vs Barcelona In the league, the commitments indicated that in case the illness lasts a little longer, the match against Villareal will also be lost, making it even more difficult for his return.
Lainez last saw activity as a starter in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey, when Betis faced Real Sociedad at the Benito Villamarn stadium and qualified for the quarter-finals of the tournament, where they will face Athletic Club on February 4.
