Olive has this Friday in the derby in the field of I raised your big break. The casualties of Carlos Soler and Uros Racic in the engine room of the Valencia They will make a place for him in the “eleven” headline of Javi Gracia, surely as Daniel Wass's squire.
It will be the first and it is not clear if there will be many more in the ten league games that will remain because the Navarrese coach seems determined to maintain his bet on the Valencian youth squad and the Serbian.
Oliva is therefore played a lot in the Ciutat de València. The Uruguayan was one of the three Valencia signings in the winter market but it was the only one of the three transfers in which the Mestalla club included a non-mandatory purchase option. Neither Cagliari, his home club, nor Valencia have revealed how much this possible transfer amounts to.
The midfielder faces this opportunity reinforced by his role in last weekend's triumph against Villarreal at Mestalla.
Oliva entered the match in the 79th minute, when the Groguet team dominated 0-1 in substitution of Racic and took his place with Soler in the center of the field.
He did not have an outstanding participation in both the tie (a penalty on Maxi that Soler transformed) but he did in the victory. After a loss at Villarreal, Oliva managed well from one field to the other and gave Guedes for the Portuguese to seal the victory already in discount.
Made his debut in the painful 2-0 defeat at the Bernabéu
Much more bitter had been his first two appearances. He made his debut in the painful 2-0 defeat at Real Madrid, in a clash that he already entered with that scoreboard. He also entered the game with 2-0 against Getafe, which ended with a bit more for the azulones and with the same poor image for Valencia.
Oliva was about to take a third setback in the clash against Villarreal, which would also have been more “personal.” When in the first half, Racic suffered an episode of dizziness that seemed to condemn him to be substituted, Gracia made Yunus Musah warm up and it seemed that his move was going to be to put the young man in the band and move Wass to the center. In the end, the Serbian recovered and the story was different.
