Oscar De Marcos - Could feature against Cadiz De Marcos (strain) is in the squad for Saturday's game against Cadiz.

Impact De Marcos used the international break to recover from his injury and was spotted in training earlier this week, meaning he has a good shot at returning to the starting lineup immediately. De Marcos was a lock at the right-back position before the injury, and his potential return would drop Inigo Lekue out of the lineup.

Yeray Alvarez - Available to play Saturday Alvarez (groin) is in the squad for Saturday's game against Cadiz.

Impact The defender was pictured in training this week, so it's not surprising to see him as part of the squad, meaning he could finally make his season debut after suffering a nagging groin issue. Yeray was a regular starter for Bilbao last season, making the XI in all but one of his 28 appearances in 2022/23, so it wouldn't be shocking if he moves into the lineup right away if available.

Nico Williams - Ruled out against Cadiz Williams (thigh) will be limited to individual training and won't be available versus Cadiz on Saturday.

Impact Williams's injury was described by the club as "moderate", though a specific recovery timeline wasn't outlined. For now, the attacking midfielder should be expected to miss at least Saturday's contest, if not significantly longer. In his stead, Unai Gomez could slot back into the starting XI for the second time this season.

Nico Williams - Diagnosed with hip injury Williams sustained an adductor injury while with Spain, the club announced Wednesday.

Impact Williams' status for Saturday's clash with Cadiz remains up in the air as the club's announcement indicated the forward would undergo additional testing Thursday. At this point, Williams should probably be considered questionable, at best. If he is unable to play versus Cadiz, Unai Gomez figures to be in contention to replace Williams in the starting XI.

Oscar De Marcos - Takes part in training De Marcos (strain) participated in training ahead of a matchup with Cadiz on Saturday.

Impact De Marcos's eventual return would probably see Inigo Lekue either dropped from the starting XI or moved back to the left-back role, as de Marcos figures to be a lock for the right-back spot. Prior to getting hurt, de Marcos registered 10 crosses (zero accurate), two tackles (one won) and one interception.

Yeray Alvarez - Back at training Alvarez (groin) was pictured training in the lead-up to Saturday's match versus Cadiz.

Impact Alvarez could be in line to make his season debut after missing the first four matches of the season due to his groin problem. Considering he started all but one of his 28 appearances for the club last season, the defender should be in line to claim a spot in the starting XI once given the green light to play. Aitor Paredes could be the one relegated to the bench once Alvarez is back in action.

Nico Williams - Being evaluated for injury Williams (undisclosed) is back with Athletic on Wednesday and is being evaluated for his injury suffered with Spain.

Impact It's a quick turnaround for Williams to be ready to play against Cadiz on Saturday. The midfielder has started all four matches for the club to open the season, registering two assists, four shots (zero on target) and 14 crosses (four accurate). If Williams does miss out, Unai Gomez could be an option to step into the starting XI versus Cadiz.

Nico Williams - Comes off with discomfort Williams (undisclosed) came off at half time during Tuesday's 6-0 win over Cyprus.

Impact Williams came off with discomfort and wasn't going to be risked in a one-sided rout. Spain were never at threat from Cyprus and had no incentive not to rotate Williams out and avoid an injury. Williams shouldn't have any major concerns before a Saturday clash with Cadiz.
