Elche regain players ahead of key Levante clash

Elche C.F.

Elche CF have received a positive update in the build-up to their next fixture. Gonzalo Villar, Thomas Lemar and Buba Sangaré took part in part of the session alongside the rest of their team-mates, according to À Punt Esports.

The three players missed the last league match against Real Betis and are now stepping up their recovery during the international break. Martin Anselmi's side are preparing with the trip to Levante in mind, scheduled for next 23 November.

The progress of Gonzalo Villar and Buba Sangaré marks an improvement after the physical problems that kept them out of the squad against Betis. The midfielder had been carrying discomfort, while the full-back was ruled out almost at the last minute with a muscle problem.

Their partial involvement in collective work is a positive sign, although both will still need to complete full training sessions as normal to confirm they will be available against Levante.

Lemar keeps his availability open

Thomas Lemar is also making progress, as he continues his recovery from the muscle injury he suffered against Valencia. The Frenchman completed part of the session with his team-mates, an advance that keeps open the possibility of him being involved in the next match.

Even so, his return to action is not guaranteed. The decision will depend on how he responds physically over the next few training sessions, just as is the case with Villar and Sangaré.

For now, none of the three players has completed a full session with the group, according to the information published by À Punt Esports. Elche will have to wait for the next few sessions to confirm their availability.
