Unai Nunez
29-Year-Old
Valencia
La Liga
Back available against Girona
Nunez (hamstring) completed Friday's team training session and is available for Saturday's clash against Girona, according to coach Carlos Corberan, per Tribuna VCF. "Unai has been able to complete the training session. They have been short sessions. He is available and that is good news."
ANALYSIS
Nunez had been sidelined since picking up a hamstring issue and missed the Mallorca fixture despite returning to training during the week, but completing a full session is the final confirmation that he is ready to feature again. The defender should slot straight back into his starting role for Valencia against Girona, giving coach Corberan a welcome defensive option back in the fold as the club navigates the final stretch of the La Liga season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Three EPL sides chasing him
Arsenal, West Ham and Everton are interested in Nunez, according to Naveen Ullal of Sport Witness.
ANALYSIS
The Spain international is enjoying a fine season with Athletic Bilbao but it's not the first time he gets linked with a move away from the Basque club, so he might decide to change the scenery ahead of the 2020-21 season. Bilbao are not keen to part ways with their star defender, though, so signing him won't be easy. One positive sign regarding a move is that the player rejected a contract extension offer from Athletic.
