Laporte makes Atlético trip as Athletic near full strength | OneFootball

Laporte was a doubt for Athletic’s trip to Atlético after a muscle overload that forced him off on Tuesday, but he has made the squad. According to as.com, the centre-back travels to Madrid with the team.

Yuri and Yeray are also included after issues against Osasuna. Yuri suffered a late bout of breathing difficulty, while Yeray finished with severe cramps following a long spell out.

Before the final training session, Ernesto Valverde said he expected to have them available. After the workout it was confirmed that only Prados, injured, and Jauregizar, suspended, are unavailable.

By technical decision, Lekue, Egiluz and Sannadi are omitted. Lekue remains out of favour, and Sannadi has not proved a productive signing given injury and opportunities not taken.

B team midfielder Eder García is a new face in the list. The travelling party is Unai Simón, Gorosabel, Yeray, Vivian, Adama, Ruiz de Galarreta, Rego, Iñaki Williams, Sancet, Nico Williams, Guruzeta, Padilla, Laporte, Paredes, Vesga, Berenguer, Areso, Yuri, Unai Gómez, Serrano, Navarro, Izeta and Eder García.
