The penultimate training session of the week for Victor Sánchez del Amo’s team before Sunday’s match (12:00) against Sporting de Gijón at La Rosaleda stadium on LaLiga SmartBank matchday 8.

The positive news of the day involved Mikel Villanueva. The Blue and White defender returned to training with his teammates, having overcome the discomfort to his left foot following a blow sustained in the last league game. Meanwhile, Dani Pachecho remained in the gym this morning and later moved on to the pitch to train alongside physical trainer, Manu Gestoso.

Regular homegrown players (Kellyan, Gonzalo, Cristo, Ismael, Ramón, Hicham and Hugo), as well as Antoñín, were in first team training under Víctor’s orders in today’s session.

The Malaguista squad will return to training tomorrow afternoon (18:00) at La Rosaleda stadium.
