Athletic Club’s captain, Inaki Williams, is battling an adductor muscle injury sustained during the recent Champions League clash against Qarabag.
The setback came suddenly, forcing the Ghanaian striker to request a substitution just before halftime. With the team trailing by a goal, his early exit impacted teammates and fans. Moments later, Athletic rallied and found their momentum, but Williams’ condition quickly became the main concern.
Medical tests confirmed the injury to his right leg’s adductor muscle, but the club has yet to specify its severity. Recovery could take anywhere from ten days to eight weeks, depending on how Williams responds to treatment. This puts his participation against Getafe out of reach and makes his presence in the highly anticipated Basque derby versus Real Sociedad doubtful.
Supporters are hopeful for a swift recovery. As captain, Williams’ drive and reliability on the pitch are sorely missed, and the dressing room now looks to come together while he focuses on returning fully fit, ready to make an impact once again.
