The alternatives to Nico Williams at Bilbao Athletic

Nico Williams, after making his debut in a training session with the first team last Monday, traveled to the La Cerámica de Villarreal stadium integrated into the list of 23, although he did not make his debut on Tuesday in a very tight match in the light where his brother scored. Iñaki. Garitano sold out the changes and Nico, like a child with new shoes, enjoyed it cheering in the stands and in the rounds of rest on the green. However, the youngest of the saga, 18 years old, is going to train in the dynamics of the lions these days in Lezama before the stake against Real Sociedad on the 31st in San Mamés, also taking advantage of the fact that Bilbao Athletic keeps competitive rest in Second B for the Christmas period.

The subsidiary will not jump into the arena until January 8 against Real Unión. Faced with this situation, Etxebe looks for its variables In the event that this express promotion is extended in time, something that cannot be ruled out, and Garitano decides that Nico Williams is a real alternative at the extreme right of his scheme. A position that has not yet been defined and through which several players from the rojiblanca squad have paraded without any settling in time. Going down a step, in Bilbao Athletic, Juan Artola, who has recently held more than one position in the broad zone together with Beñat Prados and Zarraga or Diarra, it will heel back to the right flank, where it performs the same or better. A life insurance for the Elgoibartarra coach, with already three goals in his locker and a cleverness out of the ordinary. In this way, he will let more Julen Bernaola and Víctor San Bartolomé start to intervene inside, who between the competition and some muscular discomfort, have barely appeared, for the moment, in the lineups of the rojiblanco subsidiary, second in the table to just one point of SD Amorebieta, with 15, but with one game less, the postponed against Barakaldo.

However, Joseba Etxeberria, who is clear about the priority of the first team and that it works to supply it with troopsAs he has stated on many occasions, he manages other avenues to fill the position that Nico Williams has held up to now on his own merits. His legacy leaves no loopholes: two goals, three assists and a devilish speed that has disarmed the rivals of Subgroup A on numerous occasions, without going any further on the last day against Sanse in Zubieta in which Xabi Alonso was forced to relieve to his pair (Recio) at rest because there was no way to stop him and the hole on his side was very evident.

In addition to Artola, Jon Cabo can act as right wingers, who usually plays more on the left, but versatile and with goal, Nico Serrano himself, who moves through both bands with ease and is an extreme of the same profile as Williams himself for his impudence and speed, or Jon Guruzeta, who has played mainly for Basconia in the Third Division so that he does not lose the pace, but that he is a very versatile footballer. The youngest of the Guruzeta already scored a goal against Arenas on the first day of the League with the subsidiary saving the furniture in the 92nd minute with 1-1, and covers the holes of the subsidiary if his contest is necessary.
