Real Betis’ first team returned to training this Wednesday after being given two days’ rest by Manuel Pellegrini and his coaching staff after Sunday’s league match against Valencia at the Mestalla. … FIFA’s schedule is set for November, so no official games will be played that week.
With international players Fornals, Lo Celso, Ricardo Rodríguez, Bakambu, Abdeh, Amrabat and Pablo García absent, Junior Firpo joined the group for a work session. The Spanish-Dominican soccer player felt discomfort after the match against Atlético Madrid on September 26, and tests revealed that he had injured the proximal third of his right hamstring. He has been out for the last two weeks and, once the injury has been overcome, he will start training this Wednesday and will gradually add more sessions to Pellegrini’s availability in the coming days for the matches against Girona, Utrecht, the derby against Sevilla and the games that follow.
Cucho Hernández, who underwent surgery on his nasal turbinates on Monday, has already traveled to the sports city of Luis del Sol and is doing certain individual training sessions apart from the rest of his teammates.
The only loss due to injury is Pau López, as Isco continues to train hard and gets closer and closer to his return. He could be included in the squad for the match against Girona in La Cartuja on November 23rd.
