Returns to team training
Williams participated in outdoor team training Monday as he continues recovering from a thigh injury and is pushing to be available for Wednesday's La Liga clash against Levante, according to Onda Vasco Deportes.
Analysis: Williams has taken another encouraging step in his recovery after previously being limited to individual training sessions, which forced him to miss Saturday's encounter against Valencia. The winger has now rejoined his teammates on the training pitch, raising hopes that he could return to the matchday squad for Wednesday's trip to Levante. However, coach Edin Terzic previously emphasized the importance of managing Williams' recovery carefully given his recurring muscular problems over the past year, suggesting the club will avoid rushing him back into competitive action. The Spanish international has started four of his six appearances this season, contributing one goal, and remains a key attacking option when fully fit. His involvement in the remaining training sessions will likely determine whether he can receive clearance to feature Wednesday, although a substitute appearance could be more realistic than an immediate return to the starting lineup.
Picked for bench
Williams (groin) is on the bench for Monday's match against Portugal.
Analysis: Williams is back with the team as expected following a groin injury, fit enough to take a spot on the bench. This will give the Spanish team a very useful super-sub from the bench, likely to enter in the later stages of the match. If at his best, he could be a real danger to Portugal, especially in a tight contest that could see extra time.
