Puado, 770 days 'non stop' to now consecrate in First

With the brand new silver medal that was hung last Saturday in the Olympic Games of Tokyo, next to also parakeet Óscar Gil, has put Javi puado a period and followed by more than two years of exaggerated sacrifice that have paid off extraordinarily well. The attacker has barely rested with vacation as such in 20 of the last 770 vertigo days that have changed your life.

It all began, after a typical summer, the July 3, 2019. The preseason the Espanyol of David Gallego, because very soon he had to face the Europa League previews, in which Puado played three games. The only ones –without having a meeting with the Spanish Under-21 National Team– before accepting, in November, go on loan to Real Zaragoza, where he gave the stretch that his career was crying out for. In 21 games, he scored four goals, gave five assists (plus another match and another goal in the Cup) and was crucial for access to the promotion promotion, in which he could not participate.

The canterano parakeet had contracted COVID on July 29, 2020, so it was low in the semifinals against Elche. However, the devilish dates of the pandemic season caused its recovery to coincide with the back to work for Espanyol, that with Vicente Moreno in command he had started August 10. He began to show the physical and viral load, for which he fell from the U21 squad for September.

And again In Second, already dressed in blue and white, his explosion ended. He played 37 league games, with a whopping 12 goals and eight assists. Two of the Cup, with another goal. Participated in four qualifying matches for the U21 Eurocup, in which he played five games, with three goals. The last one, on June 3.

And when the 2020-21 season could already be concluded, COVID again, in this case an outbreak in the absolute Spanish National Team, made him return from his recently released holidays to debut with the majors on June 9, in a friendly against Lithuania in which he also scored. His only real rest was the one that occurred from the next day, June 10, and until June 29, when Luis de la Fuente announced the call for the Olympic Games. Just a few hours later, on June 30, he was already focused.

Between Las Rozas to Japan, Puado was the protagonist on July 11th for the announcement of his renewal with Espanyol until 2025, the summer news in parakeet code. Already in the Games, he only had minutes in two Olympic meetings, although he has experienced the same wear and tear as the rest of the expedition and, of course, has been medal deserving like the most.

But this does not stop and, 770 days later, the counter continues to advance. The revalidation of the Espanyol forward will consist of consecrating himself in the First Division, a category for which he has already been fully prepared. Let the show go on.
