Football News, Notes & Injuries

Sancet (hamstring) will be assessed on Friday following the muscular injury that forced him off in Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Las Palmas, coach Ernesto Valverde said in a press conference. "We hope it's not too much. It's a muscular problem, but we'll have to wait for tomorrow's assessment."

Camello (toe) is progressing well in his recovery and is taking steps toward a return at the right time, as the staff doesn't want to risk him, coach Inigo Perez said in the press conference. "As I said the other day, he's taking steps forward. It's not an excessive injury, but it does have a certain degree of complexity in that you have to be cautious, because these are situations where when a certain amount of pain appears, perhaps due to adaptation, perhaps due to the surgery itself, you have to be careful. So he's taking small steps forward, feeling better all the time, and his desire to be able to help us and be on the pitch is growing. But as I said the other day, we can't take any risks, and when he can be back, we'll welcome him with open arms, and he'll surely have accumulated a lot of positive energy that will come in handy for the final stretch."
