Santi Cazorla still struggling with injury
Santi Cazorla is yet to recover fully from a foot injury he suffered while at Arsenal.
The ex-Arsenal midfielder, who joined Villareal at the end of the season has admitted he is still playing through the pain after being involved during a pre-season match. The Spaniard came on as a substitute in a 1-1 draw with Hercules on Tuesday, making his first appearance since October 2016.
Despite getting some minutes, the 33-year-old admitted after the game that he did not enjoy his appearance and will not feel like a football until his health improves.
Speaking to Marca, Cazorla said, "I am only thinking about getting rid of the pain as soon as possible because I am not enjoying what I am doing. I want to train with my colleagues again and to feel like a footballer. It is hard to express what it feels like to be out on the pitch after so much time."
"To feel like a footballer again, to feel the love of the people and the reception they gave me," he added.
