Out several weeks
Koski is expected to be out for several weeks with a muscle injury in his right quadriceps suffered on international duty with Finland, according to Noticias de Alava.
Analysis: Koski had played every minute in LaLiga this season and was a key part of the defense, with one goal, four tackles, eight interceptions and 47 clearances in five league appearances, including the second most clearances in the league. His absence leaves Alaves thin at the back, already without Facundo Garces (knee). Nicolas Valentini is the most likely replacement after a strong showing at San Mames, with Xanet Olaiz another candidate, and a switch from a back five to a 4-4-2 is also possible depending on what coach Quique Sanchez Flores decides.
Suffers quadriceps injury
Koski has been diagnosed with a muscle injury to his right quadriceps while on international duty with Finland and will return to Alaves for further assessment, according to the club.
Analysis: Koski's recovery timeline will depend on further evaluation after returning to Alaves, leaving his availability following the international break uncertain. The center-back has played every minute in La Liga this season, establishing himself as a key part of the defense. He has recorded one goal, four tackles, eight interceptions and 47 clearances across five league appearances. Jonny could step into central defense if Koski is forced to miss time.
