Nico Serrano could not act last Sunday against Arenas (1-1) due to a shoulder dislocation. That injury keeps him in the pits for at least two more weeks.. The young winger of Bilbao Athletic, only 17 years old, one of the pearls of Lezama who went directly from the Youth of Honor to the rojiblanco subsidiary, and who made part of the preseason with the first team under Garitano’s orders, is readapting these days in the rojiblanca factory with active rest to recover the joint. The clash against Racing de Aritz Solabarrieta is lost.
A Nico Serrano (5-3-2003), U-18 international, with 14 goals in 19 stakes last year, sealing the title of Imanol de la Sota’s Youth of Honor, He started the campaign at the subsidiary with some touches of his innate quality and cruising speed. He had lost some punch in the last days for the benefit of Jon Cabo, who started against Barakaldo and Real Unión, leaving Serrano in reserve, before the appointment against Arenas. The Navarrese has completed 9 matches in Segunda B, with one goal. The winger, still young and developing, is expected to become a key man for Etxebe alongside Nico Williams. Two daggers in the wings of the team in order to sneak into the first three places of Subgroup A of Group II of Second B that grants the possibility of the longed-for promotion to Second Division. Athletic paid the 350,000 of its clause to Villarreal three years ago and shielded him with 30 million to scare away any type of escape. The bet, therefore, is clear.
At the same time, Joseba Etxeberria has Antxon Jaso, operated on for a meniscus tear, and striker Ewan Urain, who purges a tear in the hamstrings, both will not be in the game on Sunday against Racing in El Sardinero, as in the case by Nico Serrano. On the positive side, the coach from Elgoibartarra recovers his organizer, Beñat Prados, sanctioned for accumulating reprimands last Sunday against Arenas. Etxebe is pulling Lezama’s pyramid, in the usual policy in these cases, resorting to Basconia guys, such as midfielder Gorka Aguirre and Mikel Goti, who made his debut against Javier Olaizola’s team as a left winger.
