Isco’s Real Betis return inches closer | OneFootball

La Liga outfit Real Betis have early this week been afforded some positive news on the personnel front.

This comes amid confirmation that long-term absentee Isco has linked back up with Manuel Pellegrini’s squad in group training.

Midfielder Isco is for his part yet to take to the pitch even once this season.

As much comes after the Spanish international was forced under the knife for a 2nd time, owing to unforeseen complications in his recovery from a fractured fibula.

The last week had seen Isco return to the grass on an individual basis, a major step forward in his recovery efforts.

And, as alluded to above, early this week, the former Real Madrid man’s return to competitive duties moved another step closer.

As per a report from Mundo Deportivo:

‘After several months of absence, Isco Alarcón has returned to training this Tuesday with the rest of his teammates from the Real Betis first team.’

Though his recovery is progressing positively, Isco is nevertheless not expected to return to the pitch until late-December at the earliest.
