Six crosses as substitute Navas generated six crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Real Sociedad.

Impact Navas attempted a team-high six crosses (one accurate) Sunday as Sevilla were handed a 2-0 defeat by Real Sociedad. After making 29 appearances (25 starts) in La Liga over the 2023/2024 season, Navas has been surpassed in the pecking order at Sevilla. Through 12 matches played, the veteran has made just 10 appearances (two starts). However, Navas entered the match Sunday following an injury to Stanis Idumbo Muzambo. As Sevilla continues to monitor their walking wounded, Navas could stand to benefit with an increase in minutes.

Impact Navas is good to go for Spain after recording a total of 90 minutes between two friendlies prior to the start of the Euros.

Subs off in defeat Navas left Sunday's 2-0 loss to Athletic due to an apparent injury, according to Jose Espina of As.

Impact Navas was touching his left hamstring due to some discomfort before being subbed off in the first half of the game. He's now questionable for the season finale against Barcelona and will likely be sidelined if there is even the slightest physical issue as there will be virtually nothing at stake in that matchup. That could mean an opportunity for Juanlu at right wing-back, though Lucas Ocampos has also been deployed in that place in the past.

Despite being heavily involved in recent games, the veteran produced his first assist of the season in his 30th appearance across all competitions. He should continue to take part in his team's attacks from a right wing-back position.

Eligible to face Las Palmas Navas completed his suspension and is eligible to face Las Palmas on April 14.

Impact Navas has been the regular starter on the right side of the defense all season long. His return will allow the coaching staff to move Lucas Ocampos to a more attacking role, as the Argentina international got the start at right wing-back in the win over Getafe last Saturday. Navas has registered 22 appearances and 19 starts in LaLiga this season.

Starting Monday Navas (sprain) is in the starting XI for Monday's clash with Almeria.

Impact Navas is back in the starting XI for Monday's clash after being diagnoses with a sprain earlier in the week. He trained through the issue so it's not a surprise to see him also play through the issue heading into Monday's match.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with sprain Navas is currently dealing with a sprain but trained with the group ahead of Monday's match against Almeria.

Impact Navas recently picked up a sprain after being forced off at half-time of last Saturday's match against Real Sociedad, but it appears the issue is only minor as he is already back training with the team. This gives the defender a decent chance to get back on the field Monday, as with a further three matches to work with the team, he should be good to go to face Almeria. With that being said, he will most likely gain the start if available, as he has started in their past eight matches, and the club is currently limited in fullback options.

Starting Friday Navas (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Friday's match against Alaves.

Impact Navas is in the starting XI Friday, ending a seven-match absence due to a hamstring injury. The defender should return to his regular starting spot at right-back now that he is healthy, as he started in 13 of his 17 matches when available. He will now hope to maintain that spot moving forward, as Juanlu is also rivaling for the starting spot.

Back in training Navas (hamstring) is back in training ahead of Friday's clash with Alaves.

Sustained hamstring problem Navas -- who has already missed two contests -- is expected to be out of action for 6-8 weeks due to a hamstring injury, per Mundo Deportivo.

Impact Navas figures to be out through at least mid-January based on the reported recovery timeline. In those previous two absences, Juanlu has featured in the right-back role and should continue to do so for the remainder of Navas' absence. Once cleared to play, Navas figures to be a near-lock to reclaim his spot on the pitch.

Also sent off Navas was sent off with a straight red card in the 88th minute of Sunday's 2-1 loss against Real Sociedad.

Impact Navas joined Sergio Ramos as the two players to receive straight red cards on Sunday. He is expected to miss one match at minimum. The midfielder had made seven starts during his last 10 games, totaling 21 clearances, 55 crosses (13 won) and 20 tackles in that span. Juanlu is expected to be the favorite to get the start at right back against Villarreal on Dec 3 in his absence.

Impact Navas led his team by delivering seven crosses, a notable increase after failing to record seven or more in the previous seven games. The decline in his crosses was likely due to reduced playing time after sustaining an injury. However, he has started and played the majority of the last two games.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out to face Almeria Jesus Navas (undisclosed) is not in the squad to face Almeria on Tuesday.

Impact Considering Navas suffered an injury during warm-ups Saturday, and that Sevilla's next match will come against FC Barcelona, it doesn't make sense to risk him, and instead, he'll receive some extra days to see if he can return over the weekend. Juanlu could get the nod at right-back against Almeria, just like he did in the scoreless draw vs. Osasuna over the weekend.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Injured during warmups Navas picked up an undisclosed injury during warmups and won't play Saturday against Osasuna, Orgullo de Nervion reports.

Impact The veteran right-back suffered discomfort while going through the pre-game exercises, and the coaching staff didn't want to take any risks with him. As a result, Juanlu will start at right-back against Osasuna, and further tests will be needed to determine whether Navas will be able to play against Almeria next Tuesday on a quick turnaround.
