Window of opportunity for Álvaro Djaló

Álvaro Djaló returns to Athletic Bilbao training after scoring for Guinea-Bissau and is in contention to rotate in attack with Nico Williams sidelined by injury.

Álvaro Djaló has rejoined Athletic Bilbao's training after the international break, having scored his first goal for Guinea-Bissau. With Nico Williams ruled out by a moderate left thigh injury sustained on international duty, Djaló is now in contention to feature in Athletic's upcoming run of three consecutive away league matches against Rayo Vallecano, Valencia, and Levante. Manager Terzic is likely to start Robert Navarro and Berenguer in attack at Vallecas, but Djaló could see increased minutes off the bench as the club manages its forward rotation.
