Ankle sprain
The 19-year-old has sprained the lateral external ligament in his right ankle and will play no part in Sevilla's meeting with Beşitkaş JK at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán stadium on 3 November. He could face up to three weeks on the sidelines.
Key player
Navas has become an integral part of Juande Ramos's team this term. On the fringes at the Andalusian club last season, he has been ever-present this campaign, appearing in both legs of the UEFA Cup first-round win against 1. FSV Mainz 05.
