In the absence of 11 days for the ball to roll in Valladolid, Real faces Villarreal today with 12 casualties in the third pre-season friendly. Imanol
Sheriff can not count on the four infected by covid-19 (Oyarzabal, Silva and the two who remain anonymous), four injured (Illarramendi, Guevara, Sangalli and Merquelanz) and the four internationals who have commitments to their national teams (Llorente, Merino, Zubimendi and Isak). The Oriotarra has no choice but to continue recruiting foals to complete the call.
And it is that in the collective training of yesterday they were allowed to see new faces of the Sanse. Aritz
Aranbarri, Xeber
Alkain, Jon
Ander
Olasagasti and Urko
Gonzalez
of
Zarate They trained with the first team and this morning they got on the plane to Villarreal and could have minutes to see how the squad is doing.
For the first two it will not be something new since they have already been in the dynamics of the first team. Aranbarri a game was already called last season while Alkain he trained during the 11 days of the 19/20. He also had minutes in the Euskal Kopa 19/20 against Eibar in preseason. Neither could make their official debut. The award this time goes to Jon
Ander
Olasagasti and Urko
Gonzalez
of
Zarate. The generations of 2000 and 2001 enter the scene. Olasagasti He generates many expectations since he is a midfielder with a long journey and good ball handling. His problem is the crowded position in which he plays. Illarramendi, Zubeldia, Guevara and Zubimendi are ahead. The gasteiztarra Urko
Gonzalez
of
Zarate, on the other hand, he is a center-back who has risen to Sanse this year and is already under the command of Xabi
Alonso. The unlimited source of Zubieta does not stop producing.
These foals must be added to those who had already been doing the preseason (Blasco, Näis, Navarrese) in addition to Robert
Lopez, which has a record of the first team. So things, Imanol he continues to rebuild his team to alleviate the casualties. The txuri urdin visit the most powerful rival of the preseason, with whom a priori they will fight in May for a European position. Five power stations (Aritz, You
Normand, Sagnan, Arambarri and Urko
Gonzalez
of
Zarate), so it would not be strange for Imanol to try this alternative of three defenders that he designed in the final section of last year.
