Dealt ankle issues Asprilla is out for Saturday's match against Real Sociedad due to an ankle sprain, according to his club.

Impact Asprilla picked up a sprained ankle over the break, leading to his absence for Saturday. He is currently undergoing test to decide how long he is out, likely sidelined for two to three weeks. He did start in their last match, so this will force a change, with Portu likely taking that spot with Bryan Gil (ankle) also out.

Six crosses in start Asprilla recorded six crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 loss versus Valencia.

Impact Saturday marked Asprilla's first start for Girona since he completed a transfer from Watford back in August. He certainly provided a lot more volume from the flank, with six crosses tripling his total tally in the category. Now, the question is whether or not that volume will warrant continued starts, especially considering he lacked quality with his crosses Saturday.
