🚨 Pellegrini confirms Isco's return to the squad against Braga
Isco Alarcón will be part of Manuel Pellegrini’s squad for the second leg of the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals against Sporting Braga.
The Real Betis manager confirmed the attacking midfielder’s presence at the pre-match press conference ahead of tomorrow’s game at La Cartuja stadium.
“Isco has been taking steps forward in his recovery. We mustn’t rush him more than necessary; he himself can feel whether he is ready for more or not. This week he trained every day and is included in the 23-man squad,” he explained.
Pellegrini admitted that he does not see Isco as ready “for many minutes or for a full half,” but he has not ruled out using him tomorrow depending on how the match unfolds.
Isco returns to the squad for the first time since suffering an injury at the end of November in a collision with teammate Amrabat.
