Willian José, Granada target

Willian José has focused many of the lights on Heliópolis since he arrived. Betis need their goals and Pellegrini wants him to enter the scene as soon as possible. “I have some discomfort in the soleus, but soon be in perfect shape to help the team,” he warned in his presentation, days after landing as a Verdiblanco signing and not entering the call-up against Real Madrid. His challenge is clear: he wants to make his debut against Granada on the next day in a bid scheduled for Monday, September 13. And Pellegrini hopes that it will be so so that a new scenario in his attack starts.

The appearance on the scene of Willian José supposes a new context of elections for the Betis coach. Loren left and the Brazilian arrived with the mission of delivering a renewed competitive role to Borja Iglesias. In addition, the profiles provide more resources on the table: even Juanmi was a starter in the last appointment as nine for Pellegrini, who will not hesitate to alternate his offensive pieces in search of the best version of each of them. He achieved it last year in some positions and also with the qualitative leap that Borja Iglesias made since January. For Willian José, who arrives on loan, it is also a personal challenge after several campaigns in which he could not regularly show his best scorer version.

A great revolution is not expected in Granada, nor is Pellegrini usually very inclined to make them despite the fact that there are still no triumphs in your team locker. But having Willian José in full condition will bring more strength to his puzzle after three days in which he barely managed to find his way to the rival's goal with ease. His game system was already untouchable last year and it will be in the present, although his tools have now multiplied to choose the nine.
