The surprise jumped yesterday at Athletic training in Lezama. Ander Herrera, who last Sunday requested a substitution in the 20th minute of the match against Barça, appeared with the group and even participated in the usual rounds at the beginning of each session. We will have to wait and see what Valverde has to say about this, because everyone is pointing to his defeat for tomorrow’s game against Villarreal.
“He had to be substituted in this Sunday’s game because of a minor injury to the semitendinous muscle of his right thigh,” read the report released on Monday afternoon by the rojiblanco club itself about the Bilbao midfielder’s physical condition. Midfielder who asked to be substituted against Barça when he noticed discomfort due to the aforementioned injury.
The one at the Camp Nou was Herrera’s second consecutive game as a starter after his return to Athletic from PSG. Despite what’s happening in training today, the only confirmed loss for the clash against Villarreal is Dani García.
