Liga: police identify author of racist chant against Nico Williams

Athletic Club’s 2-0 win over Leganes in La Liga was marred by Nico Williams’ injury. Following contact with Valentin Rosier, the 22-year-old left winger was injured in the left ankle. He was replaced at half-time by Gorka Guruzeta and was seen on crutches as he left the Butarque municipal stadium.

Asked about his player’s injury, Ernesto Valverde prefers to wait for the next medical examinations: ” We will see if he is ready for Sunday against Celta de Vigo, but it will be difficult. Then we will see in Rome (in the Europa League) “, said the former FC Barcelona coach for AS.
