Aymeric Laporte
31-Year-Old
Athletic
La Liga
OUT
Injury Strain
Est. Return 1/3/2026
Set to miss 15 to 20 days
Laporte is out for the next 15 to 20 days due to a strain he suffered in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Atletico Madrid, according to Edu Velasco of El Chiringuito TV.
ANALYSIS
Laporte was taken off the field in the 33rd minute of Saturday's match due to an injury, and after further testing, it has been revealed he suffered a strain that will leave him out for the next two to three weeks. The good news is he has avoided a serious injury, unlikely to miss too much time. He is a regular starter when fit, so this is a rough loss, with Dani Vivian and Aitor Paredes likely to remain starters until he is fit again.
