LAST TRAINING SESSION BEFORE FLYING TO VALENCIA

29/10/2019

Lopetegui took the session which included reserve team players Amo and Chacartegui, as Carriço and Sergi Gómez are still sidelined through injury

Just a few hours before travelling to Valencia, Julen Lopetegui took his team's final training session before the game against Albert Celades' men in the Mestalla. Training took place in the Jesús Navas stadium at around 10.30 this morning, and there were two notable absentees: Daniel Carriço and Sergi Gómez, who are still both sidelined due to injuries. In their absence, up stepped reserve team players Felipe Chacartegui and José María Amo, who were both training to replace the loss of the two senior centre-backs.

The fitness coaches had prepared a circuit with pilates exercise balls, stretch bands and more. After a small rondo to warm-up, came the tactical session in order to prepare themselves for tomorrow evening's clash in the Mestalla. Lopetegui will announce the squad for tomorrow's game just before the team leave the training centre and head off to the airport.
