NAVAS AND MARIANO RETURN TO TRAINING

08/01/2024

Rakitic, who missed the trip to Ferrol with a calf issue, and Soumaré, who didn't travel for personal reasons, were also back with the group

Having secured a spot in the Copa del Rey Round of 16, the players returned from Ferrol and were back in training this morning. Following the usual post-match routine, the starting XI had a recovery session in the gym while the subs engaged with drills outside on the pitch. The good news from this morning's session is that Jesús Navas and Mariano were back, having been out with injury. Also, Soumaré and Rakitic were present having missed the trip to Galicia for personal reasons and a calf strain respectively.

Quique Sánchez Flores's men will have another session tomorrow as the attention is turned to Deportivo Alavés, who we face at home this Friday.
