Dovbyk's ankle injury has sidelined Girona striker, who will be out for three games.

The news was confirmed by the club on Wednesday, with the player being ruled out for the next three matches due to a ligament injury in his ankle.

Girona have been hit hard by injuries this season, with several key players missing through illness and injury. The loss of Dovbyk is particularly disappointing, as he had scored four goals in just five appearances for the team so far this campaign.

The striker has made a significant impact since joining Girona from FC Porto last summer, scoring eight goals in all competitions. His absence could leave the team short in attack, although they may look to call upon other players to step up and fill the void left by Dovbyk's absence.

Despite the setback, Girona manager Pablo Machado will need to find ways to cope without their star striker. He will hope that his squad can come together and perform well in his absence, while also working on plans to replace Dovbyk's goalscoring threat.

Overall, it's a difficult blow for Girona, but one that the team will no doubt work hard to overcome. They will be hoping that Dovbyk's recovery is swift and that he can return to action soon.
