The youth squad makes the most of his starts in the two friendlies for Sevilla”

The shortage of central defenders in the first team has forced Julen Lopetegui to look for solutions. Thus, in addition to placing Gudelj back at the center of the defense, the Nervionense coach has pulled from the quarry. Specifically, Kike Salas and José Ángel Carmona, and in the case of the latter, a starter in the first two friendlies for Sevilla.

The visueño is not a stranger to Lopetegui, since he is a player with first-team dynamics since last season. He played 23 ‘in Vallecas relieving an injured Acuña and was summoned twelve more times in the domestic championship; one in the Champions League and three in the Europa League, in addition to playing 9’ against West Ham on British soil, a game in which the Nervionenses were eliminated.

Carmona is not only playing, but he is standing out. Forming a partnership with Rekik, he jumped from the start against Tottenham and Sporting Clube, leaving a high level that has made different teams interested in him, although they have been told to await any decision. The Alcoreño does not lose focus and appeals to the day to day. Earning a place in the first team, despite the lack of central defenders, is complicated, but the youth squad is focused on taking advantage of the opportunities that Lopetegui offers him.

With a contract until 2025, Carmona keeps his feet on the ground, although once the preseason is over, different scenarios could be opened (first team, loan, subsidiary). The club has not communicated anything to him and the youth squad is working to continue convincing Lopetegui that he has a place in the first team.
