Although he was unavailable for Junior’s game against Santa Fe last Saturday, Juan Fernando Quintero will be present at the Metropolitano Stadium for the Colombian team’s friendlies.
The skilled midfielder from Antioquia did not play against the Bogotanos due to a problem with his left ankle and doubted his presence at ‘la Amarilla’. Even Hernán Darío Gómez himself had assured that they had not yet decided whether or not he would be part of those preparatory matches.
However, this Sunday morning, the same footballer posted an image on his social networks mounted on an airplane and placed the Colombian flag, suggesting that he was traveling to work on the orders of coach Néstor Lorenzo.
It should be noted that the problem that ‘Juanfer’ had with his ankle occurred during one of the training sessions this week and that he had not been able to train normally with his teammates because of this.
However, and despite seeing no action against ‘Cardenal’s side, it was expected that the footballer would be able to do normal fieldwork this week without any discomfort.
In this way, Juan Fernando Quintero will face the games against South Korea and Japan, both on Asian territory, with ‘la Tricolor’ and will play the Junior games against América (Thursday, 8:10 PM) and Unión Magdalena in Santa miss Mary. Marta (Sunday 3:15 PM), both for the League.
