Ahijado suffered a muscular injury in Tuesday's training and couldn't train on Wednesday as he needs to recover from that issue. The right-back will be assessed in the coming days but will miss Friday's season opener against Villarreal. That said, Ahijado is expected to be the backup to Nacho Vidal on the right side of the defense, therefore his absence will not impact the starting XI.
