Borja Baston set for month out

Alaves striker Borja Baston is set for up to a month on the sidelines after sustaining a hamstring injury, reports Marca.

The 26-year-old has joined the Basque club on a season-long loan deal from Swansea City and has scored one goal – against Espanyol – in his opening three games.

He suffered the injury in the 32nd minute of a friendly with Sochaux on Friday and now looks set to miss the league games against Valladolid, Rayo, Levante and Real Madrid.

Jonathan Calleri now looks set to be given his debut by the club although John Guidetti is another option up front.
