Trains without issues
Llorente (nose) completed a full training session Thursday and looks well positioned to be available for Monday's clash against Villarreal, according to Zona Mixta.
Analysis: Llorente had missed the Champions League opener against Lille due to vision problems caused by the protective mask he has been wearing following his nose fracture from the win over Real Madrid, with Marc Bartra and Natan starting in central defense in his absence. His return to full training now marks a positive step, and a custom made mask expected in the coming days should help clear the way for his return to the lineup.
Not an option vs. Lille
Llorente (nose) won't play against Lille on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League opener, according to Diario De Sevilla.
Analysis: Llorente is reportedly struggling with vision problems due to the mask he's been using as a precautionary measure following the nose fracture he suffered in the win over Real Madrid, so he hasn't been included in the squad for the UCL opener. Llorente is expected to receive a custom-made mask in the coming days, but he should be considered questionable to play in the upcoming league game against Villarreal on Monday, Sept. 14. Marc Bartra and Natan figure to start at center-back while Llorente remains out.
