Argentina is grappling with a string of injuries.

It is reported that De Paul has been diagnosed with ecchymosis, a condition that occurs when blood vessels rupture beneath the skin, posing a serious health risk.
Currently, De Paul is under the supervision of Argentina’s medical staff, but his participation in the matches against Mauritania and Zambia on March 28 and April 1 has been completely ruled out.
If De Paul’s leg ecchymosis does not resolve soon, the midfielder faces a real risk of missing the World Cup, which kicks off in just over two months.
Reminder: Health concerns? Lionel Messi will not start against Mauritania
