### Nicolás Otamendi’s Latest Injury Update: Benfica’s Key Player Out for Several Weeks
Benfica has announced the latest injury update regarding its star midfielder Nicolás Otamendi. The Argentine international has been sidelined due to a knee ligament injury and is expected to miss several weeks of action.
Otamendi, who has been one of the most reliable and consistent players in Benfica’s lineup, was involved in the club’s recent victory over Porto. However, he sustained a serious knee injury during the match that required immediate medical attention.

The club has expressed confidence in Otamendi’s recovery process and is working closely with his medical staff to ensure a smooth return to action. Fans and supporters are anxiously awaiting news on when Otamendi will make a comeback and resume his duties at Benfica.
This injury setback comes as Benfica faces tough competition in La Liga,Saudi Pro League Focus where they currently sit in seventh place. With Otamendi absent, the team may need to adjust their tactics or look to other options within their squad to maintain their competitive edge.
As Benfica looks to navigate this unexpected disruption, fans can expect to see adjustments made in the coming days and weeks. Whether it’s through substitutions, changes in formation, or increased reliance on existing assets, the team will continue to work towards securing their position in the league standings.
