According to Spanish journalist Jose Alvarez of Telecinco, Spain centre-back Aymeric Laporte suffered a suspected deviated septum after a collision during the Euro semi-final against France and will undergo a medical examination after the match.
The 30-year-old Laporte has been a mainstay of Spain’s backline in this European Championship, starting as a centre-back since the second group stage match. Currently, there is no further news on the severity of Laporte’s injury, and it is unclear how it might affect his future participation in the tournament.
It is worth noting that Kylian Mbappe, Laporte’s opponent in this match, also suffered a nose injury previously, and was forced to wear a mask until today’s game.
