Football is like that. From rivals a few years ago, to colleagues today. Both footballers now defend the Athletic shirt and both are injured.
Iñaki Williams already knows what it’s like to suffer an ankle injury. On February 21, 2016, the Atletico striker had to ask for a change in the derby against Real after a struggle with Yuri, a left-back at the time for the San Sebastian team. “Grade II bilateral left ankle sprain”, then referred to the medical report provided by Athletic itself.
The oldest of Williams did not reappear until April 3 of the same year. The Bilbao player has been without competition for 42 days, during which the lions played eight games (five in the League and three in Europe).
Valverde gradually let him in. Against Granada he came on as a substitute for Gurpegi in the 79th minute. He then played against Sevilla and Rayo, but missed the second leg of the UEFA quarterfinals at Pizjuán and the visit of Málaga. On 20 April 2016, he came on for Muniain in the 56th minute and since then he has not missed a single game in the league.
