Montero, ‘captain’ canterano awaiting destiny

The
Atlético de Madrid
took the first test of the preseason in the friendly that he played against Numantia, in The Burgo de Osma. Such a strange friendly in which they hardly played a first team footballer.

In this context, it is not surprising that, in the second half, already with many changes, the bracelet was for a player who is barely 22 years old. We refer to Francisco Javier Montero. The Sevillian, who already knows what it is to debut with the first team of the Athletic, He wore the rojiblanca again more than two years after the last time.

His last game was against I raised, in the 18/19 season. That course was important for him because in the midst of an epidemic of injuries in the centrals he had to make his debut and give the callus in a complicated season. He ended up playing 707 minutes, in 14 games, seven of them as a starter.

After two seasons on loan, one of them in the Deportivo de La Coruña and another one in the Besiktas, the Andalusian is waiting to know what will happen to him in the coming course.

TWO TITLES IN TURKEY

Last season he was one of the players who helped the Besiktas to win the title of League and that of Cup. He ended up playing 17 games in Turkey, a total of 1,243 minutes. The player rang in this market to go to the Naples, but for the moment he is still in the rojiblanco team. The coaching staff is considering the need to have five centers in the upcoming season because if he finally uses a 5-3-2, he will need one more cash in that demarcation.

If the issue of passports were clarified, it could be Nehuén. If not, the Andalusian would have some option to stay. In any case, the possibility of being on loan for one more campaign is also very likely.
