Laporte back in full training at Lezama

Laporte returned to full training after missing last Friday's match with a minor illness, two days before Athletic face Valencia.

Aymeric Laporte trained fully on Wednesday at Lezama after sitting out last Friday's Vallecas fixture due to indisposition. The Athletic centre-back, one of manager Edin Terzic's most-used players this season, completed continuous running and ball work alongside the fitness coach. He is expected to be available for Sunday's Liga clash against Valencia in matchday nine.
