Simone on his absence from Iñaki Williams’ wedding: “It really hurt me to miss it”

Unai Simon was one of those absent from the wedding of Iñaki Williams to Patricia Morales, which took place last Saturday between the Basilica of Begoña and the Palace of San Miguel de Sodupe. She was absent along with Dani Vivian because they were both called up by Luis de la Fuente to start Spain’s training camp ahead of the European Championships in Germany, which for La Roja starts on June 15 against Croatia.

This Monday, at the national team’s media day, the Murgia goalkeeper, who is expected to start in the continental tournament, admitted that it was “very painful” for him to miss the connection between the Athletic striker and his current wife. And he explained the reason. “Mostly because he is a teammate who was already there when I came to Athletic and supported me very well. “I think that in that sense he is a special person to me, not to mention that he is a wonderful person, and I would really like to share this special day for him and experience it with him and his family,” he admitted to the media . in the football city of Las Rozas.

However, Simon played down his absence. “Football is like that. You will have to make such small sacrifices so that we are not going to tear our hair out too. I hope you enjoyed the day and had a good time.”

Of course, Simon and Vivian participated in the pre-wedding ceremony held in Maritimo de Getxo. The next day, Saturday, they had an appointment with La Roja. Luis de la Fuente certainly had respect for Nico Williams and Mikel Merino, who also got married on Saturday in Pamplona.
