Knee surgery ends season
Santiago (knee) underwent arthroscopic knee surgery Monday with the aim of resolving the discomfort he had been carrying and ensuring he is ready for pre-season next campaign, according to Deportes COPE Elche.
Analysis: Santiago had been managing knee discomfort for some time and the decision to operate now brings a definitive end to his season, with the club prioritizing having him fully fit and available from the start of the 2026/27 campaign. The midfielder has mainly operated as a rotational option for Elche this season, so his absence for the remaining fixtures has a limited impact on the starting lineup. Santiago ends the season with two tackles, one interception and five clearances in nine La Liga appearances (three starts).
Suffers knee discomfort
Santiago (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Celta Vigo, according to coach Eder Sarabia. "Yago has some discomfort with his knee."
Analysis: Santiago has mainly operated as a rotational option for Elche this season, so his absence has a limited impact on the starting lineup. The club will assess his condition at the beginning of next week to see if he can resume the matchday squad.
