“It is not a step back in my career”

Alejandro Pozo arrived and kissed the saint. He landed in Almería and began training with his new teammates on Thursday of last week, and on Saturday I was Rubi's first change, entering in the 56th minute for Ramazani. “Both the coaching staff and the players have conveyed their affection to me, I was lucky enough to make my debut at home and I was very happy for the victory against so many fans,” said the Sevilla-owned footballer on his debut as rojiblanco.
