Santiago Trigos Injury: Dealing with injury

Trigos has been excluded from his team's offseason work while he recovers from spinal problems, Mario Badillo of Milenio reported Tuesday.

Trigos finished the year with fitness issues and is out of shape for the start of the next tournament. So far, he hasn't participated in training, and it's unclear when he'll be able to return. This is a blow to the team's defensive midfield, although Cesar Garza recently arrived from Monterrey, adding an option to Jose Caicedo and Rodrigo Lopez among the players who could benefit from Trigos' absence.
