Egiluz back on pitch as Athletic train

Egiluz returned to training after ACL surgery, a positive sign for Athletic's defence following his knee injury last season.

Unai Egiluz, Athletic Bilbao's centre-back, was back on the pitch during training at Lezama under Terzic, supervised by the club's medical and fitness staff. Egiluz had undergone surgery on his anterior cruciate ligament during the previous season under Valverde's management, following an earlier serious knee injury two summers prior. His return to training represents an encouraging development for the Basque club's defensive options.
