MADRID, Spain (AP) -- Deportivo de La Coruna's international defender Manuel Pablo Garcia was to make his comeback after a year's injury layoff, news reports said Wednesday.
The 26-year-old right back, capped 12 times, was included in the Deportivo team for the first-round Copa del Rey match against third-division side Corralejo Wednesday.
Manuel Pablo suffered a twin fracture of his right leg in a collision with Celta de Vigo's Brazilian midfielder Everton Giovanella in a league match last September, causing him to miss this summer's World Cup.
