The session kicked off with a talk from José González to his players on the pitch at La Rosaleda’s annexe. The Malaguista squad subsequently underwent a warm-up, various exercises using the ball and possession work.

The positive news of the afternoon was the return of Diego Rolan and Medhi Lacen. The striker and midfielder completed the session along with the rest of their teammates, having overcome physical problems that prevented them from training normally last week. Ricca, suffering with an injury to the soleus in his right leg, stepped on to the pitch under the instruction of fitness trainer, Hugo Camarero, to undergo physical recovery work.

Recio, Juanpi and Juankar trained in the gym today and continued their recovery from their respective injuries. Peñaranda remains in Barcelona in recovery, having visited Doctor Ramón Cugat, whilst En-Nesyri is concentrated with Morocco’s U-23s. Ideye, Success and Lestienne were not in training with their teammates, with the Club’s permission.

The team will resume training tomorrow, Tuesday (10:30) at the Ciudad de Málaga stadium.
