Plays first preseason minutes
Endo (ankle) came on at halftime of Sunday's friendly against Monaco, playing his first minutes of preseason, the club announced.
Analysis: Endo returned to match action after gradually building up his training workload, providing experience and defensive discipline in midfield during his first preseason appearance. The midfielder is projected to serve primarily in a backup role this season, but his return gives the squad another reliable depth option in the middle of the park. Endo is expected to continue building his match fitness as preseason draws to a close.
Close to full training
Endo has started training more progressively and is very close to being ready, with coach Andoni Iraola hoping he can feature against Monaco. "Wataru has started training more progressively but is very close to being ready. I hope Wata can play probably against Monaco. He should be able to have some minutes"
Analysis: Endo has stepped up his program during the club's US tour as he works his way back toward action. His experience and defensive discipline in midfield make him a valuable option once fully reintegrated. Endo is expected to get some minutes in the upcoming friendly against Monaco if his progress continues on schedule.
