Rabbi Matondo He has everything to succeed in a big way in this football, being a differential factor for his team, but in the Schalke 04, where it is today, it is not managing to shine as much as it could. The 19-year-old Welsh winger arrived in Gelsenkirchen almost a year and a half ago, from a Manchester City where he had no place and there were no signs that Pep Guardiola was going to bet on him, but to date it is having a hard time exploding in the Bundesliga. Its conditions, however, are beyond doubt, and therefore, although paradoxical after what has been explained, it is not surprising that lately its name has been related to the fact of being under the magnifying glass of Real Madrid.
Do not be misunderstood with everything discussed. It is not that Matondo is not playing well with the Schalke 04. It is leaving glimpses of its quality since it was signed by the eros miners ’. But at the same time one has the feeling that he is not accumulating records that do justice to the potential that he has in his boots. 1 goal in 16 matches Bundesliga disputed so far this year does not correspond to what is expected of Matondo.
Perhaps much of the explanation lies in the fact that to date Matondo neither this course nor the past has been fixed for David Wagner before its arrival. And that deficit of not having enjoyed the continuity necessary to finish exploiting it is undoubtedly hindering its progress, leaving the ground that the Schalke 04 you are missing your potential.
(+) This is how Rabbi Matondo plays:
Matondo is trained to occupy any of the attack positions but where he does it more naturally is as a right winger, on a natural leg (although lately he has been seen more on the left wing). It is lightning. He is a very fast footballer, with noticeable acceleration and dizzying driving and unpredictable with all that it entails of difficulty for the rival.
All this said, and translated in a simpler way by asserting that his main skill is in overflow, does not stand out in excess neither for his shot nor for his completion, it is an aspect of his game to improve to climb a step in his own evolution.
In conclusion, Rabbi Matondo, absolute international already with Welsh, is called to be one of the footballers who will give a lot to talk about in the coming years. We have already seen that spark has; it only takes the wick to start lighting once and for all.
