Gil Marín believes that Simeone should have given Herrera more minutes

Miguel Angel Gil Marin CEO of Atletico Madridparticipated on Thursday in the Summit 2022 in Mexico, where he reviewed the rojiblanca news, that of Aztec soccer and also stopped at several proper names of that country related to the mattress club.

One of them was Héctor Herrera, who has ‘officially’ said goodbye to Atlético through an emotional letter in which he declares himself “a mattress maker for life” and in which he thanks for the three years he has spent in the capital of Spain.

The midfielder, who will continue his career at Dynamo Houston of the MLS, has always considered that he did not have the desired prominence in Atlético under the orders of Simeone. And surprisingly, it’s something he also thinks Gil Marinlittle given to making assessments of this type and who had previously praised the Argentine coach.

“Real men like Héctor Herrera are needed, I have the feeling that we couldn’t get all the performance we could out of him, I think Diego didn’t give him the minutes he should. It is also not easy to choose or change, when you have a base of 22 players, in which almost everyone can be a starter. I feel that Héctor could have given us a little more if we had given him more minutes”, said the maximum shareholder of the Madrid entity.
