Facundo Medina
27-Year-Old
Marseille
Ligue 1
Injury deemed cramp
Medina was only taken off due to a cramp and appears to have avoided an injury, according to manager Lionel Scaloni, per DSports. "We're very happy with Facundo (Medina); today he finished up with a cramp. Luckily, we also have Nico, who came in today and performed really well. I'm happy with both of them"
ANALYSIS
Medina was taken off late in Friday's match as he signaled to the bench while holding his leg, bringing up concerns of an injury. However, it seems the concerns have already been brushed away, as the national team manager deemed his exit was only due to cramps. If this is the case, he remains an option for the round of 16, starting at left-back for the team in three of their four games thus far.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Alternative for Atletico Madrid?
Medina is among several options that Atletico Madrid are scouting in order to bolster their defense for the 2024-25 season, according to Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has decent depth on the defensive end, but he's looking to get younger at the back, and with Stefan Savic looking likely to leave, he's already scouting the market for a potential replacement. Medina could be an interesting option for Atletico Madrid due to his positional versatility, as he can play right-back and center-back with equal proficiency.
