Nytt Liverpool-förvärv: Munoz skadad inför VM

Spaniens anfallare Victor Munoz riskerar att missa stora delar av fotbolls-VM 2026 efter att ha ådragit sig en ny muskelskada. Det nya Liverpool-förvärvet missade Spaniens öppningsmatch och ser nu ut att missa ytterligare gruppspelsmatcher. När han kan vara tillbaka är enligt läkare ännu oklart.

Munoz anslöt till Liverpool från Osasuna förra veckan efter att klubben utnyttjat hans utköpsklausul på 40 miljoner euro. Yttern hade kopplats samman med en flytt till Newcastle United innan han valde Anfield.

Han missade Spaniens 0-0-match mot Kap Verde i grupp H på grund av muskelbesvär. Ett bakslag under återhämtningsfasen har nu fördröjt hans comeback.

Det spanska fotbollsförbundets medicinska team uppger att en ytterligare muskelskada uppstod under den planerade rehabiliteringsprocessen. Hans medverkan i kommande matcher beror på hur hans symtom utvecklas.

Spanien ska spela mot Saudiarabien i sin andra gruppspelsmatch på söndag.
