Wisła Kraków striker Angel Rodado injury may sideline him for Ekstraklasa opener

Wisła Kraków’s leading forward Angel Rodado is still recovering from shoulder surgery performed in the spring. He has not yet returned to full‑contact training and the medical team’s clearance is pending, according to coach Mariusz Jop. The coach noted progress in Rodado’s rehabilitation but said the player remains a "neutral" participant in drills until a green light is given.

Rodado’s potential absence looms over the club’s inaugural Ekstraklasa match against GKS Katowice and a high‑profile friendly with Wrexham marking the club’s 120th anniversary. Wisła has bolstered the squad with defender Maxence Maisonneuve and goalkeeper Marcel Łubik, but the loss of its top scorer could affect the team’s competitiveness in the opening games.
