Genk midfielder Konstantinos Karetsas avoids serious injury
Konstantinos Karetsas, an 18-year-old midfielder for the Belgian club Genk, has avoided a major injury following his departure from a recent match against Westerlo. Initial concerns regarding his physical condition emerged after he was seen limping off the field during the game. Medical examinations confirmed that the player sustained bone edema in his ankle rather than a more severe structural injury. The club's medical staff is currently monitoring his progress on a daily basis to determine his availability for upcoming matches. Genk is scheduled to play an away match against Standard Liege this Saturday for the Europa Play-offs, followed by a home game against Antwerp three days later. The club stated that they are making every effort to ensure his quick return to competitive action before the end of the season.
