ANDl youth squad Kike Beautiful, of the Betis Deportivo, has been the great novelty in the training session scheduled for this Monday by Manuel Pellegrini on the Sports City Luis del Sol, behind closed doors. The young center-back, who already did much of the preseason with the first team, aims to be the emergency solution for Thursday’s game in The Sadar due to the accumulation of casualties in his position.
Lesions of Bartra and Victor Ruiz and the foreseeable sanction to Pezzella, sent off with a direct red in front of the Spanish, leave another youth squad, Edgar González, as the only center-back of the first squad available to meet against Osasuna from day 5 of LaLiga Santander. So Pellegrini has decided, at least initially, to resort to the quarry to resolve this eventuality.
Kike Hermoso, 22 years old and 1.90 tall
Kike Beautiful, from Madrid, 22 years old and 1.90 meters tall, joined the second team from Verdiblanco last season from the Huesca. This summer he already participated with the first team in some preseason friendlies. And this morning he has trained as one of the team, with his sights set on Thursday’s game in Pamplona.
In the work session, in addition to the starters in yesterday’s game, who have exercised in the gym, the injured have not been able to be Sabaly, Bartra and Victor Ruiz, either Juan Miranda, who is still pending the inconvenience that prevented him from entering the squad for the match against Espanyol. Lainez, on the contrary, he is already training as one more waiting to add his first minutes of the season soon.
