Santiago Giménez Out Three Months with Injury

Santiago Giménez, the Mexican striker for Feyenoord, has been ruled out for approximately three months due to a serious thigh injury sustained during a match against NAC Breda. The injury occurred just 29 minutes into the game, leading to his immediate removal on a stretcher. Giménez had been a key player for Feyenoord, scoring four goals in seven appearances this season and contributing significantly to the team's performances. His absence will impact not only Feyenoord's upcoming Champions League matches but also the Mexican national team, as he is expected to miss crucial friendlies against the USMNT and participation in the CONCACAF Nations League. This injury raises questions about potential replacements for the national team, with players like Raúl Jiménez and Henry Martín being considered. Giménez's recovery timetable suggests he may not return until 2025, presenting a significant setback for both club and country.
