Roberto Soldado is six games away from automatically renewing with Granada for one more season, taking for granted that the team will remain in the First Division. If the Valencian striker plays a minimum of 45 minutes in 25 official matches this season and Granada achieves permanence in the First Division, his contract will be extended until June 30, 2022. The soldier himself confirmed this point in a recent interview in AS: “Last year I had the same clauses. The one of permanence with 25 parties and this case is the same. If at the end I play and I have minutes in the team and the team remains in the First Division, I will continue another season ”. The 25 matches include the three competitions, League, Cup and Europa League.
The performance of this forward is being remarkable and his commitment, absolute. We put as one of the examples having played in the famous San Sebastián match against Real Sociedad where Granada traveled with a team full of subsidiaries because their squad was punished by the coronavirus. Soldier played, under his responsibility, because he had just come out of an injury. The same has happened in his last appearances against Elche and Napoli. As Diego Martínez usually says, he had a medical discharge, but not a competitive discharge.
Although it is normal for Soldier to complete and exceed this figure of 25 matches, if this does not happen there should be no problems for you to continue in Los Cármenes if you see yourself with strength. He has five goals and is, together with Jorge Molina, the only one who has scored in all three competitions.
