Lewis Rico, Guardiola’s new right eye

Pep Guardiola is absolutely in love with the game Lewis is richthe new pearl of 18 years of City of Manchester. The right-back has been at the club since he was 8 years old and is referred to as the ‘new Lahm‘.

Its market value is 1M, less than Walker (15M) and of I canceled (70M), according to ‘transfer mark‘. However, in the plans Pep said is passing in front of the two.

He is a player who has the advantage of having spent many years in the entity and in making ‘philosophy of guardiola‘ in the lower categories. Since the Catalan coach arrived in the ‘citizen’ team in 2016, all grassroots football has been playing the same way, something that is starting to pay off.

He is a smart football player, who moves well and has the ability to make others better. Its influence is customary on the individual and the collective. Has the ability to position himself as a winger in the defensive phase and as a midfielder in the offensive phase. He fully understands what the meeting needs and you don’t need to teach him some automatisms because he has already internalized them. That’s his great quality about walker and cancel. Despite being 18 years old, he is an exceptional student, he runs like a child and thinks like an adult.

“Everyone played well, but when Rich i enter Rodri better played, Kevin better played. He has the talent to do it. Since we came back he has been playing and has been fundamental. He has that ability, and it’s not easy to find. So this is our little one Philipp Lahm”.
