The return of Hachim Mastour was the positive news of the day, having overcome his neck problems and fully re-integrated into the group dynamic.  Like yesterday, non-physically fit Rosales and Santa Cruz underwent recovery work separately from the group, whilst Juankar is still resting following surgery to his left adductor muscle.

As is usual of late, from the reserve team, Venezuelan central defender, Mikel Villanueva was in training, along with goalkeeper, Aarón and midfielder, Pablo.

Tomorrow, Friday from 10:30 a.m., Málaga CF will be in training at La Rosaleda stadium’s facilities.
