Pamplona (EFE).- Like every season, many players will say goodbye this week to their current teams to return to their club after a year of decision, a circumstance that Abde, a footballer from Osasuna, will have to live through this Sunday. last time.
The Moroccan, with a good poster after making his debut with Barcelona last year, arrived in Pamplona on the horn. A few hours after the market closed, the Navarrese team made the transfer for a course official. The sports director, Braulio Vázquez, had once again been ahead of other clubs.
The impact was instant. The winger quickly earned the affection of El Sadar based on good performances. Speed, impudence, overflow and fantasy made it clear that he was not just any player. Jagoba Arrasate had in his hands a profile that he had not been able to find since he trained the team.
It took a while, but the prize for the goal came on January 25 against Sevilla in the Copa del Rey quarterfinals. He ended the tie at 99 minutes with a performance that his compatriot Bono could do nothing about. A month later, he repeated against the same rival, but this time in the league with a whiplash that gave his team three points at Pizjuán.
The lord and master of the left wing
One of the most remembered goals will be the one against Athletic in the first leg of the semifinals of the KO tournament. He served to go to San Mamés with an advantage. Elche suffered from Abde’s punch with a double full of quality and aim. Two weeks ago, against Almería, he reached half a dozen.
He has been the lord and master of the left wing. He has played it all. In the league he has had minutes in 27 games, missing three due to injury, two due to suspension and one for not having permission to play against Barcelona. In total, 1,426 minutes to gain experience for the future.
In the Cup he has been fundamental with his goals, playing six games with 392 minutes. His time at the World Cup in Qatar with Morocco was also fruitful.
At 21, he already knows what it’s like to play the biggest competition globally. Croatia, Spain and France suffered from his fanciness.
An extroverted footballer
Inside the locker room he has fallen out of favor. All his teammates have good words for him and his outgoing character made it easier for him to adapt to the club and the city. The fans will be able to say goodbye this Sunday with the North African genius as the starter.
This Wednesday, at the end of training, dozens of people have gathered around Abde to capture the moment with a snapshot, ask for his autograph or simply share a few words.
His compatriots have not separated for a single second from one of their idols.
There is no better farewell this Sunday than with a victory that certifies the rojillo pass to Europe in what will be the last afternoon of magic by the illusionist Abdessamad Ezzalzouli.
