Athletic started 2023 with a morning training session. Session that had unexpected grass level loss and withdrawal as soon as it started. Iñigo Martínez and Iñaki Williams star in both.
The left-handed central defender was the only one not on the grass. As Valverde made clear in the press conference after Thursday’s league clash against Betis at Villamarín, the left-back has physical discomfort. “It is true that he did not play in Sestao or now. I had some discomfort before, but the decision was made by me. I’m 100% ready to play,” the Athletic coach said at the time.
The truth is that Iñigo Martínez, whose contract expires on June 30 at Athletic, did not participate in the first work session in 2023 with his teammates, although he exercised inside the facilities. The fact that no medical report has been published from the rojiblanco club about this indicates that no one is being treated seriously. Ondarrutarra, therefore, has not been ruled out for Thursday’s Cup match against Eldense.
Iñaki Williams, for his part, appeared on the pitch with the rest of the squad led by Valverde. After a few minutes on the field, the rojiblanco striker made his way to the changing rooms. Yours doesn’t seem serious either.
