Left out of squad for opener
Abde (knee) will not be included in Betis's squad for Friday's season opener against Real Sociedad, according to coach Manuel Pellegrini. "Abde will not be in the squad, he's still missing something to fully recover."
Analysis: Abde had joined his teammates on the training pitch just days before the match and appeared to be closing in on a return, but his recovery evidently still needs more time before he's ready to be considered for selection. Rodrigo Riquelme is expected to retain his spot on the left wing in his continued absence. Abde is expected to keep working toward full fitness with hopes of being available for Betis's next fixture.
Travels to Lyon for treatment
Abde (knee) will leave Morocco's World Cup camp on Monday to begin his rehabilitation, heading first to Elche to spend time with his family before travelling to Lyon's Centre Orthopedique Sante, a specialist knee clinic, to begin the first phase of his recovery from the lateral knee ligament sprain, according to David Rodriguez of Zona Mixta.
Analysis: Abde had remained with the Morocco squad despite being ruled out of the tournament entirely, attending their opening fixture against Brazil in New York before departing the camp. Real Betis's medical staff agreed with the player on the decision to begin treatment in Lyon rather than Seville, also seeking to help him disconnect from his routine during the initial rehabilitation phase. Abde expressed determination to return stronger and better after a difficult week in which uncertainty surrounded his condition before his World Cup elimination was confirmed.
