A midfielder like eating

As if it were an hourglass, the days are falling like granites on the market of a Espanyol that, until now, he has only been able to incorporate Sergi Gómez, central, one of the positions indicated to reinforce but not the highest priority. That is, since the season ended in the Second Division and until now, just over ten days before LaLiga starts in the First Division, that of a defensive midfielder.

The Espanyol sports area is chasing a midfielder who contributes forcefulness, height and both defensive aids second line like him Balance to help the team dominate the battle of the center of the field. Concepts all necessary in First and shortcomings that the previous year could go unnoticed by the entity of the rivals. Keidi Bare, who has dragged annoyances during the preseason although fortunately he has already enjoyed minutes, meets most of the conditions, but is not so positionalTherefore, he can act as an alternative or alongside the new midfielder in highly demanding matches. David Lopez, yes it is and has played this summer in the center of the field bound by circumstances, it has a functioning more optimal on the axis behind.

The delay in this reinforcement, and in general of any market option that so far Espanyol has not been able to materialize except Sergi Gómez, obviously responds to the economic limitations derived from the salary limit.
