Overview
- Driussi left the Superclásico against Boca Juniors after about 15 to 18 minutes, and the club says he suffered a grade-2 tear in the right biceps femoris muscle.
- Major outlets cite a three to four week recovery for the forward, while El Liberal reported a grade-3 injury that would take longer.
- Based on the club timeline, he is projected to miss Aldosivi and Atlético Tucumán in the Torneo Apertura plus Copa Sudamericana group games at Red Bull Bragantino in Brazil and at Carabobo in Venezuela.
- Coach Eduardo Coudet is weighing replacements up front, with Maximiliano Salas and the young Joaquín Freitas mentioned after Salas came on for Driussi in the derby.
- His absence hits harder after a recent surge under Coudet that produced five goals, and it extends a run of muscle problems since his 2025 return that also included a long ankle layoff.
