Muscular injury confirmed
Gaya has been diagnosed with a right quadriceps muscle injury after undergoing medical tests Saturday, according to the team.
Analysis: Gaya is out for Sunday's visit to Real Sociedad, with this issue potentially marking the end of the season for him, as he'll be unlikely to return in the final week against Barcelona. He was a regular starter at left-back throughout the campaign, scoring one goal and delivering two assists across 32 La Liga matches. Jesus Vazquez is expected to fill in while Gaya is sidelined.
Not available Sunday
Gaya (undisclosed) will not be available for Sunday's clash against Real Sociedad after undergoing tests, according to coach Carlos Corberan, per TribunaVCF. "Saravia and Gaya will not be available. Today they have tests."
Analysis: Gaya had been forced off during the second half of Thursday's draw against Rayo Vallecano with apparent muscle discomfort, and the medical examinations have confirmed he cannot feature at the weekend. The veteran left-back had not missed a game since January before this setback, making his absence a real blow for Valencia heading into the final stretch of their season. Jesus Vazquez is expected to step in at left-back in his place against Real Sociedad.
