Sele Vera and Facundo Garcés face long absences due to severe injuries

Several performers and athletes are facing significant setbacks due to severe injuries.

Argentine singer Sele Vera and her group, Los Pampas, have announced a temporary suspension of all scheduled shows for approximately one month. Vera suffered a serious injury involving a fractured tibia and fibula, torn ligaments, and an ankle dislocation. She is scheduled for surgery on September 17, which casts doubt on her participation in the 55th National Horse Festival in Bragado. However, her scheduled performances for September 12 and 13 remain confirmed.

In professional football, Deportivo Alavés defender Facundo Garcés has suffered a complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during training. This injury requires surgery and will likely sideline him for several months. This medical setback occurs while Garcés is already serving a FIFA suspension related to documentation irregularities regarding his eligibility to represent Malaysia.
