Cristo Romero, commitment to the future for Malaga and Real Sociedad

Cristo Romero (Algeciras, 30-4-2000) will be able to play next Thursday with Sanse, a subsidiary of Real Sociedad, against Malaga despite his status on loan from Malaga. The famous ‘fear clause’ will not apply in this case. The reason is that the San Sebastian team paid the Malaga entity an important transfer premium, around 500,000 euros, which includes the option that Xabi Alonso can use him at La Rosaleda if he deems it appropriate. La Real also has a purchase option on this player close to three million euros.

This player is a left back in great ways who can also play as a left winger. Come up with criteria to attack and apply yourself in defense. His way of playing is reminiscent in many respects of that of Antonio Cabrini, a mythical winger who in the 80s of the last century stood out a lot in Juventus and the Italian team.

Víctor Sánchez del Amo made him debut for Málaga on 12-12-2019 in a match against Cádiz. Those were times when the Malaga team had to take risks with players from its Academy to compensate for the barely 178 professional chips awarded by LaLiga due to the crisis of the entity caused by the painful management of Abdullah Al-Tnani.

Although the aforementioned loan was agreed to play in the second realistic team, Crisro had his first minutes as a txuri-urdin with Real in a Europa League game against PSV Eindhoven. Little by little he has been gaining a place in the eleven of Xabi Alonso and Imanol Alguacil takes him into consideration due to the tight physical condition that Monreal and Rico have had during this campaign. The other left back is Ahien Muñoz.

This player has a contract with Málaga until June 30, 2023. The Málaga team currently has Javi Jiménez and Cufré as left-backs. The latter is loaned by Malloeca so the return of the Algecireño, more done, could be a more than notable reinforcement, unless the Real decides to make its purchase option effective.
