Terzic has full squad available for first time | OneFootball

Edin Terzic finally has his entire squad available at Lezama, with 26 players fit as Athletic prepare to resume the league at Rayo in Vallecas on 10 October. Seven league fixtures have been played, one of them postponed for Athletic against Levante due to adverse weather in Valencia.

According to AS, five internationals are still to report back, Simón, Laporte, Nico Williams, Padilla and Djaló. The latest to rejoin training are Dani Vivian, after four months managing adductor issues, plus Gorka Guruzeta and Peio Canales, who missed the last two matches with muscle injuries.

With Yuri Berchiche easing his workload, Terzic can now pick freely and will have to leave some players in reserve as he continues to bed in his ideas.

Before the league restart, Athletic face the EH Txapela final against Real Sociedad at Anoeta on Friday at 19:00, a chance to give minutes to those used less so far, including Rincón, Paredes, Rego, Nico Serrano and Sannadi, in a derby that always carries added incentive.

Mikel Santos and Simón García will be the goalkeepers given the international absences of Unai Simón and Padilla.
