Alex Petxarroman, Deportivo’s brand new right backbegan to caress the elite of football in the 2020-21 season, crowned with the promotion to the Second Division of that Real Sociedad B led by Xabi Alonso. That Sanse of the now coach of Bayer Leverkusen He amazed in a post-COVID course in which the former Real Madrid, Liverpool and Bayern player began to show his script. Pechaas the new blue and white footballer is known, was one of its most important players.
“I’m on loan for half a year, because I’m recovering from my first knee injury and in the other half of the year I’m looking to get more minutes. It’s the first time I’ve been loaned out and it’s true that they’re having an incredible year,” recalls Jorge Martínez-Losa, who recently left Fabril after a six-month stint and is a former teammate of Petxarroman’s in the youth academy. blue and white“I have very good memories with him and he was also a very important player for Xabi,” he added.
That Real Sociedad B team used him as a very popular resource these days in the football proposed by coaches like Xabi Alonso: that of the full-back who becomes an inside midfielder in offensive phases to generate superiority. A Pecha That role suited him like a glove. “He is a very technical player, very skilled with the ball and who has many registersWhat Sanse took advantage of was that he often went to play inside. He played a bit more like a fourth midfielder and from there we found our superiority. Xabi Alonso was able to see that perfectly. “It was very difficult to defend those situations,” explains the former Fabril striker, who is currently looking for a new position. “In attack, Alex was often the one who came inside at certain moments of the game. On a technical level and in his ability to understand the game, he is spectacular. He picked it up very quickly, on the first try, and from then on, many superiorities were created in the ball’s output,” he insists.
Petxarroman was one of the players who attracted the most attention in that Real B. “He had a spectacular year, he was super important,” Martínez-Losa underlines. That season did not go unnoticed by the eternal rival of the San Sebastian team, who took the player because he was just turning under 23. At Athletic, however, he did not have the same performance. “That jump is difficult, but in Andorra it has been seen that he is a more than valid player for the Second Division. He has many resources, he attacks well, he defends well, he has a very good physique for the category…”, summarises the former Fabril striker.
Deportivo will have a profile that complements that of Ximo Navarro, perhaps a little different. “Ximo is a much more physical player, more powerful, faster, able to incorporate and put in the work. Pecha He also has that, but he can contribute other things on a technical level, filtering balls, fouls, corners… I think they have also thought about that, about having different registers and completing a powerful squad,” reflects Jorge Martínez-Losa.
