Osasuna has received a significant boost with the return of Iker Benito to training. The midfielder has begun to integrate back into the team's training sessions after almost a month out due to injury.
What happened to Iker Benito?
Iker Benito injured his left ankle during a friendly match against Real Sociedad on July 30. The ligament injury did not have any associated bone injury, which has allowed the player to do individual work for almost a month.
Why is Iker Benito's return important?
The return of Iker Benito to the group is a relief for Osasuna, which had to adapt to the absence of the player. The player is expected to be ready to play after the La Liga break next weekend.
What's next for Osasuna?
The Osasuna squad trained with differentiated work on Monday, according to each player's participation in the Sunday match. Among the players who completed their training normally were Moi Gómez, Víctor Muñoz, and Lucas Torró.
