Tenerife had ‘overbooking’ in the goal and some had to leave. And it was the youngest of the three: Carlos Abad Hernández who goes to Deportivo de La Coruña for the next two seasons. “Whenever I have left on loan, I did it with the intention of returning to Tenerife to stay, but it could not be. This summer I had the trend of the previous ones: uncertainty. I wanted to stay, but this decision I have made is the best“, he told Cadena SER.
The portuense insisted that “it was not an easy decision and it was not what I wanted from the beginning because I wanted to stay, but given the circumstances it has happened like that,” he explained. “My departure is a solution for the club and I had an opportunity that was very good and I did not want to miss it.“he added.
“We have three professional goalkeepers and we cannot have them. We have told Carlos that standing still is not good, he comes from having a good season in Greece and he deserves to play. We are working on it, “said Juan Carlos Cordero last Wednesday at a press conference.
Carlos remembered his best moment in Tenerife, when he enjoyed a series of games as a starter until an inopportune injury appeared. “When you enjoy what you do, you don't think about the weather and it was nice.”
He insisted that in this present, “On the one hand there is the pain of leaving the club in my country and on the other, turn the page and think about what is coming, which will be very good. I am very excited, “he said.
The goalkeeper thus closes his stage at the club where he has played 17 games (13 in the League and 4 in the Copa del Rey) since it debuted back in November 2014. The truth is that He was more on loan than playing on the island since he spent two seasons at Real Madrid Castilla (67 appearances), one at Córdoba (29) and the last in Greece (28).
