Athletic Club faces Olympique de Marseille in preseason test

Athletic Club faces a significant preseason test against Olympique de Marseille at the Vélodrome. This match serves as a general rehearsal for manager Edin Terzic ahead of the league opener against Sevilla.

Terzic is expected to field a strong starting lineup, though several key players, including Unai Simón, Aymeric Laporte, and Nico Williams, are not yet integrated into the group dynamics following their summer break. The lineup features notable inclusions such as Hugo Rincón at right-back and Canales in midfield, alongside players like Yeray, Paredes, Yuri, Jauregizar, Sancet, Iñaki Williams, Robert Navarro, and Guruzeta.

The trip to France comes as the squad prepares for a final friendly against Atalanta. Meanwhile, players Agirrezabala and Gorosabel remain in Spain to finalize their departures, with the goalkeeper reportedly close to joining Racing.
