Should be back Sunday

Diakite (undisclosed) should be back available for Sunday's clash against Newcastle although he remains not fully fit, coach Andoni Iraola said in the press conference, according to Sky Sports. ''Bafode is also training, I wouldn't say 100 per cent, but I expect him to be available also for the game.''

Analysis: Diakite is struggling with his fitness since a few weeks, likely due to his adaptation to the Premier League. The frenchman is expected to be back available for Sunday's clash against the Magpies, although he remains not 100% fit according to his coach. Diakite will likely have to build his competitive fitness gradually while adapting to the best league in the World.
