Should play Saturday
Romero (hamstring) appears to be an option for Saturday's match against Espanyol, according to manager Luis Garcia. "It is true that we have kept Isaac between cottons until today. There could have been a coach yesterday, but it was not necessary. He's much better now. I have the clear alignment, they know it, and there may be some situation of doubt, but we have already decided."
Analysis: Romero was questionable with a hamstring injury, but his absence from group training Thursday now appears to be due to caution, as the forward should feature Saturday. The forward has started in their past four games, so this is a major development. That said, he will eye an almost immediate return to his role in the starting XI.
Dealing with hamstring discomfort
Romero is following a specific individual training program due to hamstring discomfort and did not train with the squad Wednesday, leaving his availability for Saturday's clash against Espanyol uncertain, according to Candela Vazquez of ABC Sevilla.
Analysis: Romero's absence from the collective session is a concern for Sevilla heading into what is effectively another must-win fixture in their survival battle, with the club needing points to maintain their distance from the relegation zone. The club will assess his progress over the coming days before making a final call on his involvement Saturday.
