the defender Jordi Pola premiered yesterday with Sporting’s first team. The 22-year-old center-back played yesterday as a starter against Las Palmas in the last league match, playing a solid match and showing that he is in good condition as a defender. The defender was replaced by José Gragera in the 81st minute. Molinón recognized his efforts and bid him farewell with a standing ovation. “Debuting at Sporting is a dream”, confesses the young centre-back. “It’s a symptom of growth”, repeated the player, who shared the most special day of his career with two other youth players, Diego Sánchez and Mecerreyes: both also had minutes and made their debut with the first team when coming on from the bench .
Abelardo and Rico plan today to announce one by one to all the players how their situation is at the club. The sports director also plans to meet with the players of the subsidiary. In the case of Jordi Pola, the technicians want to see him up close. As happens to Fernando Somolinos, it is very feasible that the two defenders from the reserve team will start the pre-season with the first team. There is even the option that they have the role of central room next year.
