The renewal of Diego Rico for two more seasons, along with the team’s declining performance and results opened a debate on the advisability of its continuation. More or less important factors come into play here, each one is present. Wages, injuries, defensive work, the level of the centers, their status, being from outside, whether or not a youth squad is covered, if they have Champions level, if they are ready to be a substitute, starter or nothing and a long etc.
Rich He is a veteran soccer player, who has offered a performance in clear rise from a start that sowed many doubts, to a present where he has established himself as a starter and a defensive pillar. His best attacking version is yet to be seen, the one he promised to deliver after going through Leganés and Bournemouth, but is currently out of contention.
The key, for my taste, is whether his level is to be a starter in a team like Real, which is fighting to play in the Champions League, or to be a certain resource from the bench. If this is the first option, Aihen He aims to keep the replacement position. But in the event of the second, which I see closest to the truth, the Navarrese will be left without a place and How are you you should look for a higher level market holder. Is it worth having two outside full-backs? Many people ask. I tend not to look at DNI, not forgetting the famous 60/40 percentage of homegrown players, of course, and if Rich clearly improves the level of AihenThe change will be worth it. But, does it or does it not meet that premise?
