Unai Gomez News: Makes bench

Gomez (thigh) is on the bench for Monday's match against Rayo Vallecano.

Gomez has shaken off his thigh injury this week after being a late call, with the midfielder fit enough to find the bench. He was more of a rotational option for the club last season, with 14 starts in 32 appearances last campaign, seeing most of his time from the bench.
