In the lead-up to the crucial match against Feyenoord, FC Groningen coach Frank Wormuth made a notable statement regarding Luciano Valente. The young defender, who has increasingly been playing a prominent role in the squad, appears to be dealing with fitness issues. Wormuth indicated that Valente may not be able to play, raising concerns about his physical condition. "We need to wait and see how he feels," said Wormuth. "It's essential that he is in top form, especially against a strong opponent like Feyenoord."

The situation surrounding Valente poses questions about FC Groningen's lineup. With the match against the Rotterdam side on the horizon, Valente’s potential absence is a significant blow for the Trots van het Noorden. The young defender has proven to be a valuable asset for the team, and losing his services could impact Groningen's defensive strategy. Fans will be anxiously waiting to see how the situation unfolds in the days leading up to the match.

Wormuth emphasized the importance of prioritizing Valente's health and stated that no risks would be taken. "We don't want him to get injured further. We need him for the rest of the season," he added. The upcoming days will be crucial in determining whether Valente can contribute to the fight against Feyenoord, a match that is vital for FC Groningen's quest for points in the Eredivisie.
