Athletic Club will travel to Rome with the last minute absence of Oihan Sancet. The midfielder is suffering from an overload in his left hamstring and will not be at the Olimpico.
Athletic Club travel to Italy to face AS Roma on Thursday at the Olimpico stadium in the transalpine capital (21.00), with Nico Williams, doubtful due to an ankle injury, but without another of their stars, Oihan Sancet, who is out at the last minute due to a “muscular overload”.
