Athletic Club name full-strength squad for Copa final – Yeray included

Athletic Club will have a full complement of players to choose from for the club’s impending showdown with RCD Mallorca on Saturday night.

As much was confirmed by Los Leones themselves on Friday.

Ernesto Valverde’s troops are of course currently in the process of seeing out their final preparations for the biggest outing of the club’s campaign to date.

This comes with a Copa del Rey finale showdown with the aforementioned Mallorca in store.

Safe to say, then, that Valverde and his coaching staff were no doubt eager to have as many of the club’s star performers fit and available to feature as possible at the Estadio la Cartuja.

And, as alluded to above, the Basque giants will indeed have not most, but all of their first-team personnel available.

As confirmed in an official statement across Athletic’s website and social media platforms on Friday, the one remaining doubt to make the trip to Seville, in the form of Yeray Álvarez, has been called up.

This means that the following squad of players will be at the disposal of Ernesto Valverde against Mallorca:

Unai Simón, Agirrezabala, Vivian, Paredes, Yeray, Vesga, Berenguer, O. Sancet, I. Williams, Muniain, N. Williams, Guruzeta, Dani García, I. Lekue, Ruiz de Galarreta, Yuri, De Marcos, Imanol, Villalibre, Ander Herrera, Raúl García, Adu Ares, Prados & Unai Gomez.

Bilbao Athletic pair Unai Egiluz and Mikel Jauregizar, meanwhile, will convene with the club’s senior squad after seeing out their duties against CD Tudelano on Friday evening.
