Targeting minutes against Celta
Romero (lower leg) will be included in the squad for Tuesday's clash against Celta Vigo and could see some minutes, according to coach Luis Castro.
Analysis: Romero had been confirmed with a left posterior tibial muscle injury after being forced off at halftime of the Villarreal fixture, making his return to the squad a faster turnaround than initially anticipated. The club is clearly managing his return carefully and will limit his involvement to a few minutes rather than risking a setback, with Kareem Tunde expected to continue in a larger role in the front line. Getting Romero back in the fold at all is a welcome development for Levante heading into the final stretch of their survival battle.
Suffers tibial muscle injury
Romero (lower leg) has been confirmed with a left posterior tibial muscle injury after being forced off at halftime of Saturday's clash against Villarreal, with his return to training dependent on the evolution of the injury, according to the club.
Analysis: Romero will be monitored closely over the coming days as Levante assess the extent of the damage ahead of Friday's crucial survival battle against Osasuna. The nature of a posterior tibial injury makes his availability for the immediate fixture highly unlikely, and Kareem Tunde is expected to take on a larger role in the front line during his absence. The club will provide further updates on his timeline once the recovery process becomes clearer.
