Azpilicueta returns to full fitness and is included in Atletico's squad list against Villareal

Cesar Azpilicueta, Atletico Madrid defender, is part of Diego Simeone's 20-man squad for Monday's visit to Villarreal, after overcoming a muscle strain, in a list with the absences of Thomas Lemar and Mario Hermoso, due to injury, and Nahuel Molina and Rodrigo de Paul, due to suspension.
Azpilicueta did not train on Saturday or Sunday for this reason, but he was included in the squad announced on Monday by the coach for the visit to the Estadio de La Ceramica.
However, neither Lemar, out for the 40th game in a row due to a ruptured right Achilles tendon suffered on 16 September, nor Mario Hermoso, injured in the second leg of the Champions League last 16 tie against Inter and who misses his second game, nor Molina, sent off against Barcelona, nor De Paul, who is on a five-match yellow card suspension, are available.
The squad includes goalkeepers Jan Oblak, Horatiu Moldovan and Antonio Gomis; defenders Axel Witsel, Stefan Savic, Jose Maria Gimenez, Gabriel Paulista, Reinildo Mandava and Cesar Azpilicueta; midfielders Marcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios, Arthur Vermeeren, Koke Resurreccion and Saul Niguez; wingers Samuel Lino and Rodrigo Riquelme; and forwards Antoine Griezmann, Angel Correa, Alvaro Morata and Memphis Depay.
