Vargas' gastroenteritis leaves Switzerland without a forward

According to the EFE agency, Ruben Vargas, Sevilla winger, has not traveled this Monday to Switzerland because he is suffering from gastroenteritis.

The Swiss Federation confirmed that the player will not join the national team camp for the Nations League matches against Slovenia and Scotland.

Miro Muheim, from Hamburg, has also been ruled out due to muscular problems, the coach Murat Yakin reported.

Vargas will join the team as soon as he recovers from the illness.

Yakin will start training this afternoon at the Berit Sitterstadion in St. Gallen and has called up Roggerio Nyakossi and Isaac Schmidt as substitutes, awaiting other players.

The Sevilla player, 67-time international, started last Friday in the LaLiga EA Sports match against Alavés, which ended 0-0.

In that match Vargas missed a penalty in the 32nd minute and was substituted in the 59th minute for Chidera Ejuke.

On another front, an imminent departure is expected at Manchester City, where Yaca Garcia-Planas scored in a 1-2 loss to Barça.
