Bernardo Espinosa - Ruled out for two weeks Espinosa has suffered a leg injury that will rule him out for at least two weeks, the club announced Tuesday.

Impact The news will rule Espinosa out for the next three matches and through the upcoming international break. Considering the defender has played just two combined minutes off the bench this season, his absence shouldn't impact the starting XI. All told the defender will have missed four matches when next available to play versus Almeria on Oct. 22.

Artem Dovbyk - Scores, assists in blowout win Dovbyk scored one goal and assisted once from four shots and one chance created in Saturday's 5-3 win against Mallorca.

Impact Dovbyk scored Girona's second half with a penalty, but the towering striker was not done, and he also set up Savio's goal to close things out with a beautiful through ball following a one-two sequence. Dovbyk has two goals and two assists this season, but it's worth noting he has started in just two of his six appearances so far.

Paulo Gazzaniga - Gives up three goals Gazzaniga made two saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 5-3 win over Mallorca.

Impact Gazzaniga was en route to deliver a solid performance, but the two goals he conceded clearly hurt him. Luckily for him, Girona netted five goals and didn't have problems securing the win, but Gazzaniga didn't have a strong fantasy performance. He should remain between the posts when Girona takes on Villarreal on Wednesday.

Yangel Herrera - Scores with long-range shot Herrera scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-3 win versus Mallorca.

Impact Herrera completed an impressive first half for Girona, as the Venezuela midfielder notched the team's fourth goal when latching on a rebound and blasting home a bomb from outside the box. Herrera is a dynamic central midfielder, and even though he's not known for scoring goals too often, that has been changing of late, and he has three goals in six appearances for Girona this season.

Ivan Martin - Scores against Mallorca Ivan Martin scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 5-3 win over Mallorca. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 79th mi...

Impact Martin scored Girona's third goal when he showed his poacher instincts, running to slot home a low cross from Savio. The central midfielder tends to make quality runs forward, so his goalscoring contributions might not be odd going forward.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daley Blind - Credited with assist in win Blind assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-3 win over Mallorca.

Impact Blind was credited with the assist that led to Girona's first goal, though in reality, he simply tried to control the ball on a rebound, and one of his tackles set up David Lopez for the goal. Blind can be a threat when pushing forward on the flank, but he should deliver most of his value via defensive stats going forward.

David Lopez - Scores following set-piece play Lopez scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 5-3 win against Mallorca.

Impact Lopez bagged the equalizer for Girona midway through the first half, as he took advantage of a rebound to drill the ball home. However, he's not known for his attacking contributions, and he's likely to deliver most of his value going forward via defensive stats.

Ibrahim Kebe - Out again Monday Kebe (knee) was left out of the squad against Granada on Monday.

Impact Kebe had been named to the squad for the previous two contests but is continuing to deal with a knee issue that has prevented him from getting onto the pitch.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Borja Garcia - Not named to squad Garcia (foot) will not be available against Granda on Monday.

Impact Garcia has yet to get onto the pitch for the club this season due to his lingering foot issue. Once given the all-clear, the midfielder should be in contention for a spot in the starting XI after having featured in 10 of his 11 matches last season. Still, given his extended layoff, Garcia will likely have to come off the bench before getting a crack at the starting XI.
