ANDhe winter market seems key for Mallorca. The Balearic team has already made three starts: Lago Junior, Aleix Febas and Joan Sastre. In the case of the Mallorcan full-back, it is not official yet, but he has already landed in Greece and has posed with the PAOK scarf. In all this context, many players have been related to the Mallorcan club. The last to enter that list is the Spanish goalkeeper Sergio Rico.
Mallorca’s goal is not having a good time. Manolo Reina is being the headline throughout the season. However, its level seems not to be desired. That is why the sports management signed in the summer to Dominik greif for about 3M. A back injury is not allowing him to play, and on the last day against Levante Luis García Plaza opted for the third goalkeeper: the young Ibizan Leo Román.
At this point, with a clear uncertainty under the sticks and with three free chips, Pablo Ortells seems to consider signing a new goalkeeper. Sergio Rico, former from Seville and current PSG player, is in the Balearic orbit. This has been confirmed by Matteo Moretto, a journalist for Sky Sport. The French club and Mallorca, according to this information, have started talks to close a loan until the end of the season. The issue of salary is the most important impediment. Currently Sergio Rico charges just over 200,000 a month, a very high figure for the Mallorcan club.
The question now is to know how far Mallorca can go. With three tokens recently released, there will be arrivals. But the uncertainty is in whether the goal is the most important position to reinforce. The need for a ‘killer’, a pivot or a center-back may have a higher priority on Luis García Plaza’s wish list, who has already made it clear that the goal is well covered.
