Saúl Ñíguez is one of the great novelties, if not the greatest, in Sevilla’s call to face Rayo Vallecano this Sunday in the 14th matchday of LaLiga. Even more so after Xavier García Pimienta said last Friday, in the press conference prior to this clash, that the man from Elche would not be available for this match, but for the next one against Osasuna. However, The fact of having been included on the squad list is at the discretion of the player himself. against the Madrid team.
The Sevilla coach himself revealed shortly before the start of this Sevilla – Rayo, before the microphone of DAZNthat It was Saúl himself who asked to be in the call: «He comes to do group dynamics, he wants to help from within. “He is not here to play, he is not going to participate, but he wanted to be at the talk, at the food, in the locker room, to step on the grass… But he is not there to participate,” he said. In this way, the player on loan from Atlético de Madrid shows once again his commitment to the club, despite having played only a few minutes since his arrival, whether due to suspensions or injury.
This is how Saúl returns to a call-up with Sevilla two months after being injured against Valladolid, on matchday 7 of the league. There are already two group sessions that he linked last week with the group; However, García Pimienta does not consider it appropriate for him to participate in the match against Rayo: ««It is very good, in the correct process. Today the session ended as a wild card. Until yesterday it was partially. It is within the correct margins, we have all of next week and if nothing strange happens, it should be for Osasuna», stated the Catalan last Friday.
Saúl’s arrival at Sevilla was one of the big surprises of the last summer transfer market. Called to be one of the banners of this team, the truth is that the midfielder’s participation is summarized in just 322 minutes with the Nervionense jersey, spread over four games. Both he and the club itself hope that, once his training is complete, he will be a strong player for this season.
