Marc Pubill makes injury return after 4 months on the treatment table
The UD Almería right-back was handed a starting spot against CA Osasuna in Pamplona and played 60 minutes. UD Almería 'B' striker Marezi also featured in the game after a two-month recovery
UD Almería right-back Marc Pubill returned to match fitness against CA Osasuna at El Sadar Stadium after spending four months on the treatment table. Despite the period of inactivity and the lack of rhythm and competition, the 20-year-old footballer was handed a starting spot in Pamplona. Gaizka Garitano announced in the pre-match press conference that the Catalan was fit again and was highly likely to be back in league action this Thursday. He was the highlight of the last fixture of the first stage of the season and was replaced in the 60th minute by Chumi. The last game that the Terrassa native had played was against Celta de Vigo on 1st September, 2023.
UD Almería 'B' striker Marezi, who usually trains with the senior team, also featured in the game against the Rojillos. He had been out of action for two months and the Serbian is once again at the disposal of Mr Garitano. He played the entire second half against CA Osasuna.
The two footballers were told by the Club's medical services that they were fit for work on the past 28th December, when UD Almería returned to training after the Christmas holidays.
