Samu Aghehowa (until recently known as Samu Omorodion) is one of three players who are part of the Spain squad in the current break and have so far not made their senior team debut. The forward of Porto with Marc Casadó and Aitor Paredes the trio of rookies in the duels this Friday against Denmark and next Monday in front of Switzerland They have a chance to claim their figure to get a place in the group of Luis de la Fuente.
At 20 years old, he has more than earned this opportunity after starring in an excellent start to the season that has Atlético de Madrid pulling his hair (he sold 50% of his pass for 15 million euros and the Porto can get 30% more for 10 extra ‘kilo’), and now it remains to be seen how this fits into a system and game plan Spain where a priori the starting center forward is a Alvaro Morata which, by characteristics, are very different from those who attack him.
Going back to the performance leading up to this call, the numbers speak for themselves. Since the season Samu Aghehowa He scored 12 goals in 13 official matches played with Porto and he also managed to score a poker of goals (4) in the first half of the 6-0 scored by Spain U-21 against Malta on October 15. He had already dreamed of being with the absolute team and not being with La Rojita in said break and his appearance did nothing but finish convincing. Luis de la Fuente for the ‘great’ to call it.
Regarding the attack style in question, Samu Aghehowa He’s a power forward who may not have the skills to mesh with the second line that he has. Morata But he is easier to score, and in addition to being very difficult to defend, he is a very smart player when it comes to finding spaces in the area. In addition, it is very strong in the open field and is faster than its volume would suggest.
Other football players are present here Spain who can occupy the center forward position, beyond Alvaro Morata and Samu Aghehowais Ayoze Perez and Mikel Oyarzabal. Neither the one from Villarreal nor the one from Real Sociedad are players who can compare to him in terms of style. For all that said, doubt rests on the role Samu will play in Spain, but what is beyond doubt is that he will contribute goals and he is a player to watch for the 2026 World Cup to reach himself at 22 years old and has a good bag of goals behind him.
