Valverde’s call-up for this afternoon’s match at Villarreal includes a number of new features. The questionable Paredes and Nico Williams are finally part of a roster that also includes pup Hugo Rincón. The Navarrese right-back was already under Valverde’s orders on Wednesday at the Rubí, although he did not get any minutes.
The news in the form of dismissal came from Raúl García. Navarrese stayed at home because of a “dorso-lumbar contusion on the right side.” It is not unusual for this player to miss an appointment, even due to injuries.
The Athletic squad, in short, consists of Unai Simón, Agirrezabala, Vivian, Paredes, Vesga, Berenguer, Sancet, Iñaki Williams, Muniain, Nico Williams, Guruzeta, Dani García, Lekue, Ruiz de Galarreta, De Marcos, Imanol , Villalibre , Nolaskoain, Prados, Adu Ares, Unai Gómez and Hugo Rincón.
