Second Almeria striker set for long-term lay-off following injury on international duty
Almeria have had a tough start to the season. Following MD9, during which they lost heavily to Athletic Club, they remain the only side in La Liga to have not won a match. With new head coach Gaizka Garitano now in place, they will hope to end their winless run in the coming weeks.
However, Garitano will have to do without his two first-choice strikers for the foreseeable future. Luis Suarez broke his leg against Granada earlier this month, and he has been joined in the treatment room by Ibrahima Kone, who suffered a serious ankle injury while playing for Mali.
