Christian Stuani: the name and surname of the goal in Girona

In Girona they have it clear: “Neither Luis Suárez nor Cavani, Christian Stuani”. The Uruguayan is the banner of the rojiblanco club and has won the affection of all the fans based on dedication and so many. And it is that since he signed in 2017, Stuani has had an idyll with the goal. Against Cartagena he completed 150 games wearing the jersey of the Girona entity and he celebrated it by scoring (2-0). With that goal already there are 90 who have celebrated as a Girona footballer and it seems that he never tires of making history. And what remains to be written because has a contract until 2026.

His contribution to Girona is to frame and, without a doubt, that rojiblanco is living the best years of his career. At the very least, it is the club in which he has found greater stability and regularity and where he has shown the greatest punch. He has 90 goals, which are the same as he achieved with the shirts of Espanyol (29), Albacete (22), Middlesbrough (16), Racing (13) and Levante (10). This season he has played 14 games and has already scored eight goals, so is just two away from matching his record from last season (ten). The truth is that the injuries weighed down on him and this season he is struggling to be at one hundred percent, but this has not diminished his scoring ability.

His goalscoring ceiling is in the 31 goals he signed in 2019-20, in the Second Division, and he is on the right track to match them. And more taking into account the voracity of a Stuani who wants to lengthen his moment. It is indisputable for Michel and it is enough to see how he delivers in training and in games. He is a benchmark and he is clear that he still wants to make more of a mark at Girona. For now only 12 players have played more games than him in professional football with the red-and-white jersey. And of the current squad, only Borja García (201) and Juanpe (177) surpass him. Hunting them seems a bit complicated, but what he currently has in his sights is reaching 100 goals. It is acceptable and more considering that in the 150 games he has played to date with Girona, his average has been more than one goal every two games.
