Voro González prepares for Saturday’s match against Athletic Bilbao with three safe casualties (Hugo Guillamón, Gabriel Paulista and Nico González) and two doubts to resolve: Justin Kluivert and Thierry Rendall. The Dutchman, except for a setback, will surely join Voro’s cause, while the winger presses to arrive.
Thierry suffers a rectal injury that Voro himself described as “complicated”. The Portuguese, who was injured during the match against Cádiz that was played at Mestalla on January 6, has been out for a month, having lost seven games: four in the League (Almería, Valladolid, Real Madrid and Girona), two Cup (Sporting and Athletic) and one Super Cup (Real Madrid). This week he has started doing field work and the intention of the medical services to increase the loads to see if he can join the group by mid-week.
Kluivert, for his part, will be one more under Voro’s orders in the group’s next training session. His presence gives Voro offensive alternatives, who has enough for Saturday to improvise a midfield with the casualties of his two ‘pivots’: Nico and Guillamónthis one for sanction.
