Losing Nico Williams is a big loss for Bilbao. |
On the morning of May 5, Williams and Sancet were both absent from Bilbao's 0-0 draw with Sociedad in round 34 of La Liga. AS said both were injured and were racing against time to return in time for the match against MU in a few days.
Williams started the first leg at San Mames last week, with Sancet absent. Williams had a poor day, being blocked by MU defender Noussair Mazraoui. The Euro 2024 champions only had a 25% dribbling rate, zero accurate crosses, just eight passes and lost the ball 20 times.
Williams is Bilbao's leading star thanks to his dribbling and breakthrough ability. However, when he failed to make an impact, this striker could not help Bilbao avoid a 0-3 defeat against MU.
Meanwhile, Sancet is Bilbao's top scorer in La Liga this season with 15 goals. He plays in many positions in attack and is a formidable spearhead for the La Liga club.
Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde said: "Sancet is recovering well, while Nico needs more time. I really want both of them to play in the next match."
MU is unbeaten in the Europa League this season after 13 matches. The "Red Devils" have been Bilbao's biggest obstacle since the beginning of the tournament.
