Girona's Dovbyk Suffers Ankle Injury and Expected to Miss 3 Rounds

Girona's Dovbyk is set to miss three rounds after suffering an ankle injury during the club's recent match against FC Barcelona.

The Russian striker, who has been in excellent form this season, was forced off late in the second half of Sunday's match at Camp Nou with an ankle problem. He had come on as a substitute for his teammate, Ivan Rakitic, who was also injured.

Dovbyk's absence is a blow for Girona, who were already struggling to find their form without key players such as defender Sergio Rico and midfielder Joan Laporta. The team will now have to rely more heavily on their remaining attacking options, including Luis Suárez and Carlos Tévez.

The injury comes just weeks after Dovbyk suffered a similar ankle injury in the Spanish Super Cup final against Real Madrid. Despite missing that game, he returned to action in time to play the rest of the season.

Dovbyk has been a vital part of Girona's attack this season, scoring six goals and providing four assists in all competitions. His departure could be a significant loss for the team, but they will hope to find a replacement quickly.

In conclusion, Dovbyk's injury is a setback for Girona, but they will have to rely on their other attacking options to fill the void left by the striker. It remains to be seen how long he will be out and whether he can return to full fitness before the end of the season.
