Athletic Club provide double injury update | OneFootball

La Liga outfit Athletic Club have on Monday provided updates on the wellbeing of two important members of the club’s first-team ranks.

The pair in question? Mikel Jauregizar, and Nico Williams.

Midfielder Jauregizar for his part featured from the off over the weekend, as Athletic secured a return to winning ways at the expense of Real Oviedo.

The 22-year-old, however, was forced into a premature departure from the action owing to a fitness problem.

Teammate Nico Williams, meanwhile, was not even called up for the trip to Oviedo, amid a fresh bout of pubalgia issues.

Updates on the fitness situations of both players, in turn, have since been provided.

As per a statement across Athletic Club’s website and social media platforms on Monday:

Mikel Jauregizar: Further tests have ruled out severe ligament and meniscal injuries. 

Nico Williams: The footballer has begun treatment with an external specialist for his pubalgia, with a specific training program that will keep him out of upcoming matchday squads, pending further developments.
