Kike Salas returns to group training; Isaac remains sidelined

Kike Salas returns to group training after Sunday's discomfort; Isaac Romero remains sidelined ahead of Friday's Alavés match.

Sevilla captain Kike Salas trained with the group on Wednesday after missing the start of the week's sessions following discomfort in Sunday's match against Getafe. The 24-year-old defender, who scored in that game, is expected to be available for Friday's Liga fixture at home to Alavés (21:00).

Forward Isaac Romero, substituted in the first half against Getafe, worked in the gym on Tuesday and trained on the pitch Wednesday but without contact with teammates, leaving him a doubt for the Alavés game. Sevilla will also be without Miguel Sierra, Marcao and Peque through injury, plus Manu Bueno, suspended after a red card.
