Good news for Athletic Club and Moroccan football: Maroan Sannadi has returned to the training grounds at Lezama, nearly four months after his last appearance. The Moroccan forward has begun his first individual training sessions on the pitch with the ball, an important step in his rehabilitation program.
A Gradual Return, Guided by Medical Protocol
Underwent surgery in November 2025 on his right knee due to a meniscal injury, Sannadi is following a phased recovery, starting with individualized training before a possible reintegration into the team. The club had previously announced a successful operation aimed at addressing a persistent discomfort that had been affecting him since the beginning of the season.
This presence at training, with the ball at his feet, marks a milestone in the process: the return is being managed carefully, without rushing through the stages, with the goal of gradually regaining load, support, and directional changes, which are essential for a forward.
An Absence That Weighed on His International Prospects
The surgery and recovery time had significantly compromised his chances of being available for the Africa Cup of Nations, with the unavailability extending over several weeks.
And Now?
At this stage, no return date for competitive play has been publicly announced. The priority remains medical progress, with a gradual increase in intensity: individual sessions, followed by a return to collective exercises and match rhythm when permitted by the staff.
