The Board of Directors of UD Lanzarote decided on Monday night to remove goalkeeper Diego Arroyo from the team after the altercation he had in the morning with his teammate, Swedish midfielder Fredrik. In a brief press release, the club states: "In the locker room and after this morning's training, an incident occurred with aggression by the player Diego Arroyo to the player Fredrik. As a result, the Board of Directors that manages UD Lanzarote has made the decision to open a disciplinary file and remove the player Diego Arroyo from the team's discipline."
Specifically, once the morning recovery session concluded, both players engaged in a heated discussion in the locker room, words that surprisingly led to Diego Arroyo's aggression towards his teammate. It is speculated that Fredrik could even suffer a fracture of his cheekbone, an injury that would further aggravate the deficiencies in the midfield of the Lanzarote team.
Although economic sanctions for Arroyo are not ruled out, the truth is that this incident could lead to the player's early departure from the team if we take into account the consequences of the similar altercation that midfielder Checa starred in last season, who after being removed was sought an exit in another club during the winter market.
In any case, Arroyo's absence will be difficult to cover since the veteran Marino still has not overcome the physical problems that left him out of the squad last Sunday, while the young Kevin continues to recover from the nasal fracture suffered last week.
