The match against Vallecano on 18th October was a fatal one for Jankto. Already in the 14th minute he got badly injured, the coach was worried if he would have a broken tibia. In the end it was not, but Jankt was suffering from a sprained ankle.
So he missed 11 La Liga games, during which Getafe finally got some results and started to pick up points after an opening six losses in a row. At the moment, they have 11 points, but it is still not enough to get them out of the relegation zone and the Azulones are in 19th place.

“After almost three months I returned to the pitch. Thank you to everyone who helped me. Thank you also to our fans. We fight together until the end!” wrote Jankto on his Instagram.
