Pablo Hernández Back in Hospital: Castellón Boss Faces Fitness Race for Cádiz Clash

Castellón manager Pablo Hernández has been readmitted to hospital with kidney stone complications, putting his presence for the year-end match against Cádiz in doubt.

The Castellón gaffer is facing a battle to be in the dugout for his side’s final fixture of the year after suffering complications from kidney stone surgery.

Health Setback for Hernández

Pablo Hernández, who’s been doing a proper job steering the ship at CD Castellón this season, has found himself back in hospital just days after undergoing surgery for kidney stones.

The Spanish tactician initially seemed to be on the mend, even managing to take charge of his team during their recent fixture against Mirandés. However, things took a turn for the worse on Tuesday when, as the club reported, “his health condition slightly complicated.”

This setback has resulted in the manager being readmitted to hospital, where he’s currently under medical supervision.

Club Remains Optimistic

Despite the concerning news, Castellón have been quick to reassure supporters about their manager’s condition:

  • The club states Hernández is “evolving favorably” in his recovery
  • He remains under close medical supervision
  • Doctors are monitoring his progress carefully

It’s a proper shame for the gaffer, who’s been having a right old time of it lately. Kidney stones are no joke - as anyone who’s had them will tell you, they’re absolute Barney Rubble!

Doubt for Year-End Clash

The million-dollar question now is whether Hernández will be able to lead his team in their final match of the calendar year against Cádiz.

As it stands, his participation remains uncertain and “will be subject to the evolution of his health condition in the coming hours,” according to club statements.

The timing couldn’t be more frustrating for Castellón, who would surely benefit from having their main man in the technical area for what promises to be a proper test against Cádiz before the brief winter break.

All eyes will be on the medical updates in the coming days, with fans hoping their beloved manager makes a swift recovery in time for the weekend’s action.
