Nico Serrano broke the door on Thursday in Bulgaria. The Navarrese winger’s inclusion in the match, with the score 1-0 against and alongside De Marcos and Vesga, marked a before and after in Athletic’s visit to Ludogorest. The lions came back with goals from Iñaki Williams and the Navarrese footballer himself.
The popularity of the Nicos fell this time to Serrano’s side. The youngest of Williams, who has followed more or less expected projections since he began to stand in the youth Athletic categories, did not monopolize too much fame in this clash that ended with the third consecutive victory for the red and white in these. group stage of the Europa League. His friend and companion won the applause of critics and the public on this occasion.
The left-handed winger, who in Bulgaria, like weeks before in San Mamés against Espanyol, played close to the right wing, revealed the truth. From the first contact with the ball. It soon became clear that this could be another Nico’s big night and it was.
Don’t let anyone think that Navarrese is back in football. On the contrary. At 21 years old, he traveled many kilometers to prove himself at Athletic. Marcelino was the first and until now almost the only one to seriously bet on this forward who stands out, among other things, for his finishing ability and his scoring instinct.
With the Asturian coach he debuted as a lion at 18 years old. In that 2021–22 campaign he played fifteen League games, only three of them as a starter; two from the Cup, one from the start; and another from the Super Cup. Now, on his return to Athletic after being loaned to Mirandés, Zwolle and Racing de Ferrol; Nico Serrano has two fights. Both ended in a victory and one, his debut at continental level, came with a goal.
Athletic’s left-footed forward already knows how cold it is outside Lezama and how difficult it is to overcome serious injuries. Last Thursday, in Bulgaria, it was announced to the general public. The second Nico of the red and white club is here.
