General interest
Jonás Luna is establishing himself as one of the starting midfielders for Marcelo Escudero’s Reserve and he has already had contact with the First Division footballers.
There are several new names in the River Reserve version 2023 that little by little will become more and more well-known among the fans who follow the matches more and more assiduously. One of those surnames that is quietly settling in is that of Jonas Moona mixed midfielder who took ownership of Marcelo Escudero’s team, sharing midfield with Sebastian Sanchez and Esteban Fernandez.
With a low profile and silent work on the pitch, Luna, who jumped from Sixth to Reserve, enjoys this new present with many minutes: “Being a starter motivates me much more. I try twice as hard to stay there. It’s not easy to be, last year I didn’t have to play as much and I wanted to be among the 11. Now I try to maintain myself and train to the maximum; leave nothing undelivered in each game“, he told the Official Site.
Born on May 10, 2005 in Santiago del Estero, the midfielder has well-defined references within the club: “Nacho Fernández, Enzo Pérez and Julián Álvarez, because of what it meant for River, the intensity he has to play and how he defines, I follow them a lot“. In turn, he recounted his experience training sporadically against the footballers of the professional team: “The game is simpler and more direct, they don’t let you breathe when they press and you have to be lucid, concentrated to define the play. I always try to listen and assimilate the advice they give me“.
The voices of the different youth protagonists are being heard and they all emphasize the same thing: the solidarity that there is of the referents towards the youngest. “I listen to the instructions that Demichelis gives and also the advice that the players give me, who are good people. Zuculini, Maidana and Enzo Pérez helped me. All the advice they gave me helped me and improved as a player“Luna detailed.
“/>Finally, the number 7 of the Reserve, like every kid raised in Nuñez, imagines and dreams of the day of the official opening: “It would be beautiful to debut in River and in the Monumental. I think that all the moments lived and the sacrifice made with my family and with my colleagues, who also have the same dream, would come to mind. My father Eduardo, my mother Silvina and my brothers Benjamín, Francesca, Malena, Celeste and Thiago are the ones who motivate me to give a little more every day.“.
