LaLiga has chosen Raúl de Tomás MVP of the 2020-21 season in LaLiga SmartBank. He was the number one candidate to obtain this award after being the top scorer in the category, with 23 goals, and leading Espanyol, the champion with one of the best scores in the history of Segunda. RdT, who has played 3,026 minutes, has finished 50 times on goal with an effectiveness of 46% and has distributed three goal assists. A luxury for the parakeet box, which will continue to count on the Madrid, who has four years left on his contract.
Apart from the figures, the footballer has scored some of the best goals in the championship, like the 1-0 against Almería from midfield after a hat to his defender. A work of art that could deserve the award Puskas to the best European of the year. Other goals such as the foul he scored in style Cristiano Ronaldo Before the Logroñés or other auctions with his cold blood and technical exiquistez within the area have been for the video library.
RdT, as he recently explained in the documentary RCDE Inside of TV3, did not see with good eyes to continue in the parakeet club in Second, a category for which the first thing to do was to prepare psychologically. The forward, after his departure failed due to the market, had the backing of the coach, Vicente Moreno, and settled in the team focusing only on the game. The goals began to arrive, which helped Espanyol by finishing in direct promotion in the first round.
With some sporadic injuries and with COVID-19 in the final part of the championship, RdT also saw from the stands how other players led on the field and occupied their role, such as Javi Puado or Adrián Embarba, who together with the Madrid player will form a First Division one of the most complementary forwards in the championship. RdT accumulates 52 games at Espanyol and 27 goals in a season and a half. No surprises are expected in the summer market.
