Athletic Club’s winger, Nico Williams, has sustained an injury during the 35th round of La Liga against Valencia. The incident occurred in the first half, forcing him to leave the pitch. His emotional response, repeatedly expressing, “It can’t be, it can’t be…,” highlighted the severity of the situation, according to football journalist Fabrizio Romano.
This injury comes at a critical time, just 32 days before the World Cup, causing concern within both his club and the Spanish national team. Williams, 22, has faced fitness challenges throughout the season, having previously missed approximately 85 days due to various injuries.
With this latest setback, there are growing fears about his ability to recover in time for the upcoming tournament.
