<p>Rayados is experiencing tense moments after it was confirmed that during Thursday's training session, Monterrey&nbsp;midfielder Sergio Canales and coach Martín Demichelis had a heated argument at the end of practice. The Argentine coach criticized the team's star for his lack of movement and tactical aspects.</p><p>Sources reported that the former Real Madrid player took off his training bib and walked away, kicking and breaking a glass door, which resulted in a leg injury. The club later confirmed his injury.</p><p>After training, Demichelis acknowledged the argument but downplayed the incident:</p><p>"You can give it whatever title you want. We allow players to express their opinions, and in every team, every sport, every locker room, there are always exchanges of views. I like to give my opinion, and I like players to share theirs so we can reach the best conclusions and grow… I respect all opinions," he said.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The Rayados locker room could be fractured following the altercation between Demichelis and Canales. It remains uncertain whether the Spanish midfielder, who received 10 stitches on his leg, will be available for Saturday’s Matchday 14 clash against Chivas in the Clausura 2025.</p><p>Julen Lopetegui’s name has emerged as a potential replacement for Demichelis, who has failed to meet expectations since taking over from Fernando Ortiz last season. La Pandilla was eliminated in the Round of 16 of the Champions Cup and currently sits in ninth place in the Clausura 2025 standings.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>"Sergio Canales received medical attention for injuries on his left leg after breaking a glass door when entering the locker room following practice at the El Barrial Training Center." the club said in a statement. "The player rested for the remainder of the day. The medical staff will closely monitor Sergio to assess his recovery and his availability for the match on Saturday, April 5."</p>

WHAT MONTERREY SAID

<p>The team will face Chivas at home this Saturday in Matchday 14 of the Clausura 2025. La Pandilla sits in ninth place with 19 points. The top 10 teams qualify for the Play-In. The northern side has only one win in their last five encounters against El Rebaño.</p>
