Athletic Club winger Alvaro Djalo missed another training session on July 28, 2026, at the Lezama facilities, raising concerns about a potential groin injury. The Guinean international was seen holding his groin while talking with Eibar players during halftime of a recent match. He has not played minutes against Eibar and was absent from Tuesday's session along with Gorosabel, Vivian, and Vesga. Athletic Club has not released any official statement regarding Djalo's health status. The winger, who returned from a season-long loan in Qatar, had started preseason well with two assists against Derio and two goals against Leioa, showing eagerness to earn his place in the squad. Coach Edin Terzic is monitoring the situation as the team prepares for their first match against a same-category rival, Racing, on Wednesday.

In Tuesday's training session, Terzic was unable to count on Gorosabel, Vivian, Vesga, or Álvaro Djaló.

Gorosabel and Vivian continue their recovery from respective injuries.

Álvaro Djaló was absent again after not featuring against Eibar, with the club awaiting a medical report on his condition.

Djaló's Groin Issue

The Guinean international was seen in Gazituaga speaking with Eibar players during halftime while holding his groin, suggesting his issues may stem from that area.

He started the preseason well, providing two assists against Derio and scoring two goals against Leioa, showing intensity and eagerness to secure his opportunity.
