Athletic Bilbao head coach Ernest Valverde has heaped praise on Inaki Williams following the striker's stellar performance in their Europa League victory against Fenerbahce.
The Ghanaian forward scored both goals in Bilbao’s 2-0 triumph over the Turkish giants on Wednesday night, securing a hard-fought win for the Spanish side.
Williams’ brace brought his Europa League tally to four goals in six appearances this season.
Speaking after the match, Valverde highlighted Williams’ value to the team.
“For us, Iñaki Williams already knows what he means because of the heart he has and how he pushes us," he told the club's media after the win.
The coach also emphasized the significance of the victory for the team.
"For us, this victory means a lot. We are a team that has just arrived in continental competition after years and it leaves us in a good position," he added.
Williams will aim to maintain his impressive form when Athletic Bilbao faces Alaves in La Liga action on Sunday.
