Est. Return 3/22/2026
Could be set for surgery
Aguerd is dealing with a sports hernia and could be set to undergo surgery that would sideline him for several weeks, according to Santi Aouna from Foot Mercato.
ANALYSIS
Aguerd has been dealing with a sports hernia and lingering groin issues since November and is now expected to undergo surgery that could sideline him for several weeks. It's a major setback for Marseille since the center back has been an undisputed starter whenever healthy, and losing him for the final stretch of the season would be a tough blow for the Olympians. Benjamin Pavard, Facundo Medina or Leonardo Balerdi are likely to be the main options to step in and fill the spot in the heart of the back line while he works his way back.
