The extent of Cardona’s injury:
The 27-year-old forward, who has scored 8 goals in 18 matches this season, underwent a medical examination, which revealed that he has sustained damage to his left knee’s medial collateral ligament.

Cardona’s injury will be a huge setback for Racing Santander, who are currently at the 17th position in the La Liga 2 table, with 22 points from 22 matches. They have been struggling to find the back of the net with their other forwards not producing enough goals. Moreover, Cardona’s injury comes at a time when Racing is preparing to face Rayo Vallecano and Real Zaragoza, two tough opponents, in February. It remains to be seen how Racing will cope with the absence of their top scorer.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the injury to Jon Ander Cardona is terrible news for Racing Santander, who are already struggling to find form in the La Liga 2. The club’s top scorer will be missed for several weeks, and his absence will put added pressure on Racing’s other forwards.
