Dimas Delgado has been an integral part of Bengaluru FC ISL's 2020-21 campaign. He has a goal and an assist to his name in 11 appearances this season.

Bengaluru FC announced on Sunday that midfielder Dimas Delgado has returned to Spain due to a family emergency.

The 37-year-old flew to Spain on Sunday and will miss at least two weeks of action, considering the 14-day quarantine rule in place, as Bengaluru FC fights to seal its spot in the top-four.

Dimas has been an integral part of the club's ISL 2020-21 campaign, playing in every game this season. He has a goal and an assist to his name.

 

Bengaluru FC, which recently parted ways with coach Carles Cuadrat , is enduring a disappointing run and has lost four of its last five matches. The side is currently seventh on the table with 13 points from 11 matches and trails fourth-placed Hyderabad by three points.

The former ISL champion has roped in Spanish playmaker Xisco Hernandez in a bid to boost its chances of making the playoffs. Bengaluru FC will next be in action on Wednesday when it faces Kerala Blasters.
