Madrid sign Villarreal's 'signing' for its quarry

Real Madrid continues to multiply the power of its quarry and this summer has taken an important step. He is going to change his head of recruitment for young national pearls and finalize the incorporation of Andrés Pardo, the Villarreal scout. A deep connoisseur of the Spanish quarry, especially the Levantine, where he began to make a name for himself in the Levant. A key move for Madrid to get the emerging gems before anyone else as soon as they poke their heads.

The arrival in Valdebebas de Pardo reinforces the power structure of Manu Fernandez in its second season with full command of Factory White. A task that he develops together with his most direct advisor, Abián Perdomo, Director of Methodology. He also continues as coordinator of recruiters at the national level Dani Fernandez, although below in the hierarchy that Pardo will command. Pardo is one of the most relevant vertices of the careful work that the Yellow Submarine has been doing to perceive talents on its radar, with recent and glittering cases such as the canary Yeremi pine. A work team airtight designed not to generate noise and to convince children and their families before the greats come into action, especially Barça and precisely Real Madrid.

End to the Merino era

As this newspaper published on April 30, the continuity of Alfredo Merino was very much in the air because the club was looking for someone for his position since last year. Merino's departure means the farewell to the last vestige of the time of Ramón Martínez at the head of the white quarry in a direct way, although its influence is still perceived. Merino is the last of his close collaborators to leave the entity, after Manolo Díaz. Manu Fernández has remade the leadership of Valdebebas almost completely, because It has already incorporated Carlos Guerrero, the strong man of the Getafe quarry who will now be in charge of looking for talents in Madrid, a fishing ground especially in the southern area that continues to give the club good results (Miguel Gutiérrez, Arribas …).

A work in the offices that joins the one that is being carried out to restructure the benches, decisions that depended on what happened with Raúl and with Arbeloa targeting (at least) the white Youth A, and also shielding the best soccer projects. . The last to renew his contract was David González from Burgos, who will be with Castilla next season.
