Not Real Madrid, Atlético or Getafe, not even Valladolid, the team with the most Madrid from LaLiga is Levante. The set of Orriols, used to being associated with the motto of ‘L’equip dels valencians’ (the Valencian team), currently has more players born in the capital than in the Valencian Community itself.
José Luis Morales, Sergio Postigo, Coke Andújar, Gonzalo Melero, Dani Gómez and Toño García (born in Alcalá de Henares, although considered Valencian) are the six players with Madrid roots in the current squad of Paco Lopez. It's more, Pablo Martinez, recently loaned to Mirandés, would be the seventh in contention. In addition, team players who have already made their first steps with the first team, such as Alfredo Pedraza, Ferni Y Alejanro Cantero they also share Madrid origin.
Three of them, Morales, Postigo and Coke are one of the team captains with Roger Martí. His descent in the wardrobe, despite his origin, is unquestionable. They feel the club as part of them. Partly because of his empathy and sense of professionalism. Proving that the feeling of belonging does not only flourish at the base. The Commander, without going any further, has taken root in the Capital of Turia and considers himself one more Valencian after eight seasons in the city, between the first team and the subsidiary.
Only Atlético de Madrid (Mario Hermoso, Marcos Llorente, Manu Sánchez and Koke) and Valladolid (Roberto Jiménez, Javi Sánchez, Óscar Plano and Nacho Martínez) follow closely.
