The UC will seek to replace Lanaro, as long as the ANFP allows it

Injury to German Lanaro leaves Catholic University very decimated in his defensive line. And, moreover, replacing it will not be an easy task. That, as long as the ANFP authorize the registration of a new central.

Although Lanaro’s is a cut of the cruciate ligament of the left knee and will be out more 180 days According to the regulation, the replacement of an injured person of this type can only be carried out until the fifth date of the second round.

Although the injury occurred in the duel against Colo Colo, which would be the eighth date of the rematches, UC has only played four games in this second half of the championship, due to its international commitments.

Therefore, Cruzados already sent a paper, signed by Lanaro himself, asking to authorize the replacement. Now, the central table of Chilean football must decide whether or not to apply the replacement, given the progress of the tournament, although in justice it is logical to authorize the registration of a new player, considering that UC has not played five games.

The task will not be easy, because they must choose only Chileans, since they do not have available places for foreigners. Further, they should look among the defenders of the “B”, among those who have played less than four games in First this season or among those who have been released from their teams abroad. So replacing the multi-champion Lanaro will not be easy at all, but in San Carlos they are already spinning everywhere to find a good alternative. Of course, fingers crossed that the ANFP authorizes them.
