Sevilla have Rubén Vargas back in full training, while Juan Iglesias has a foot contusion and will be assessed before Saturday’s visit of Atlético Madrid.

Diario de Sevilla reports the Swiss winger has shaken off a knee issue and worked with the group. According to Zona Mixta, the club deny any agreement with Olympiacos, while Gianluca Di Marzio says Bolonia FC are monitoring his situation.

Iglesias attended Luis García Plaza’s opening briefing, then left the pitch with club physios. There is confidence he could make the game at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán, although his progress over the next hours will decide.

Sevilla have opened LaLiga with back-to-back wins, beating Rayo Vallecano 2-1 and Athletic Club 1-3. They face Atlético on Saturday 29 at 21:30.

On the Atlético side, Julián Álvarez did not train on Wednesday, citing an indisposition amid uncertainty over his future. Alexander Sørloth was also absent as he continues to recover from discomfort. Those absences add optimism in Nervión with three days to go.
