Perfect timing for the injury by Turan. He would not be in the squad anyway - but to those who don't know anything about football - they will say -'He is not in the squad because he is injured.' This helps him save face. Also helps for the next NT selection. Instead of the Turkish media seeing that he has not been selected for the Barca squad due to being shit - they will see he was 'injured' and thus they can argue - he is still in fine form -
but just had an injury - that will heal just in time for the next NT game. He will also not be able to complete a medical for another club for a while also...
Ambiguity always helps him - that is why he never bothered learning Spanish. His defence mechanisms to hide his lack of talent are legendary. Dominant alfa male. A lot to learn from him.
