Starting against Rayo Aridane (undisclosed) is in Osasuna's starting lineup for Friday's clash against Rayo Vallecano.

Trains individually Aridane spent Friday's training session on his own ahead of Sunday's match against Valladolid.

Impact Aridane could be fine but missing training late in the week isn't a good sign for one's fitness. He's been left on the bench in two straight games so his presence may not make much of a difference on the lineup so long as Unai Garcia and David Garcia are fit.

OCTOBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Goes distance in loss Aridane made two interceptions while playing for the full 90 during Monday's 2-0 loss to Villarreal.

Impact Aridane started for a second straight match, largely due to the suspension of David Garcia in the last round against Valencia and now of Unai Garcia in Monday's game. As a result, unless Aridane did enough to impress his manager in a loss, the Garcias should pair at center-back for most games.

OCTOBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays in friendly Aridane (illness) featured in Thursday's friendly against Valladolid.

Impact Aridane has yet to play this season but has at least returned following an illness that knocked him out of Sunday's loss to Getafe. He'll provide further depth off the bench behind Unai Garcia and David Garcia at center-back.

Now makes squad list Aridane made the squad list for Saturday's match against Cadiz.

AUGUST 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not in squad Aridane wasn't named to the squad list for Friday's match against Sevilla.

Impact Aridane started in 12 of his 15 appearances last season and if this is how the new campaign gets under way, he may not be much more than an alternate option. Should David Garcia get snatched away by another club, Aridane can ascend back to the lineup with more consistency.

AUGUST 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to bench in season finale Aridane was an unused substitute in last weekend's defeat against Mallorca.

Impact Aridane missed five months from October-March with a calf injury, meaning he finishes the campaign with just three clean sheets in 15 La Liga appearances (12 starts) for Osasuna. The 33-year-old will want to win back his starting spot in central defense alongside David Garcia next season.
