Inaki Williams Misses His First La Liga Game In Nearly Seven Years After Making 251 Consecutive Appearances

Inaki Williams missed his first La Liga game for Athletic Bilbao since April 2016 on Sunday, as he was forced to sit out with an injury.

The 28-year-old had played an enormous 251 league games in a row for the Spanish side and become a key cog in their forward line.

He has also scored 78 goals since joining the first team in 2014 after an impressive spell for Bilbao Athletic, the club's B team.

Williams was not included in Bilbao's matchday squad to face Celta Vigo on Sunday after picking up an injury in their last game against Valencia in the Copa del Rey quarter final.

The last time Williams missed a La Liga game, Leicester were Premier League champions, Arsene Wenger was manager of Arsenal and England were yet to be knocked out of the Euros by Iceland.
