Real Sociedad winger Barrenetxea has hamstring surgery
Real Sociedad gave no return timetable after the operation to repair an injury sustained against Rayo Vallecano.
Real Sociedad winger Ander Barrenetxea underwent surgery Friday to repair a severe right hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday’s 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano. The club said the procedure in Madrid was completed without complications and gave no timetable for his return.
Barrenetxea was hurt shortly after setting up Orri Óskarsson’s winning goal. He had been called into Spain’s senior squad for this month’s Nations League matches before the injury forced him to withdraw. Fifth-place Real Sociedad visits Racing Santander when La Liga resumes Nov. 22.
