Athletic Bilbao’s star striker Iñaki Williams will be sitting out the team’s last La Liga game of the season against Rayo Vallecano this weekend. The Ghanaian player recently underwent plastic surgery to address a painful scar on his left foot, as stated in an official medical report from the San Mamés Club.
The surgery took place at the IMQ Zorrotzaurre Clinic earlier this week, ruling him out of the upcoming match at Vallecas. Despite this setback, Williams has had a stellar season, featuring in a total of 39 games across the league and Copa del Rey. He managed to score 14 goals and provide five assists, playing a key role in Bilbao’s Copa del Rey triumph over RCD Mallorca in a thrilling penalty shootout on April 6.
As the older brother of Nico Williams, Iñaki has been a crucial member of Bilbao’s squad throughout the season. His absence will undoubtedly be felt in the team’s final game, but his contribution to their success this season is undeniable. Fans will be eagerly awaiting his return to full fitness for the start of the next campaign.
