Junior Firpo returns to Seville for medical tests

Real Betis left-back returns early from Dominican Republic duty after muscle discomfort in Haiti match; medical evaluation pending.

Junior Firpo has returned to Seville ahead of schedule from Dominican Republic international duty after suffering muscle discomfort during Friday's match against Haiti, where he was substituted after just ten minutes. The Real Betis left-back will undergo medical examination by the club's medical staff. He had already felt issues in the previous match against Trinidad and Tobago but started against Haiti anyway. The injury comes at a demanding period for Betis, who face nine matches in 28 days across La Liga, Champions League and Copa del Rey before the next international break.
