Inaki Williams Eyes Quick Return for Athletic Club in Copa del Rey Clash with Barcelona
Athletic Club has experienced a stellar season, with standout performances from the talented Inaki Williams. The 29-year-old has been a crucial contributor, scoring eight goals and providing three assists in La Liga, propelling Los Leones to fifth place.
Williams took a hiatus from Athletic as he answered the call from Ghana to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations. However, Ghana’s disappointing group stage exit means Williams is set to return to Bilbao. Relevo reports that there’s a chance he might be available for the upcoming Copa del Rey quarter-final against Barcelona on Wednesday.
As of now, Athletic has not released their matchday squad list, anticipating Williams’ potential inclusion. Given his limited playing time against Mozambique on Monday, Williams could be relatively fresh for Wednesday’s clash. While Athletic hopes to have him back on the field, Barcelona may have contrasting hopes for the outcome.
