In a season that began with undefeated Paranaense title and ended with a spot in the South American Cup, Athletico had ups and downs. And maybe no sector has experienced this instability than the right-hand side. Five players were used in the position, being two improvised and one that turned out to be the worst hiring of the season. With only one athlete in the cast, Hurricane went shopping.
Athletico intends to close with at least one side-right before the end of the season. Despite the natural cold in the negotiations between Christmas and New Year's, the plan is to give the future coach, which has not yet been defined, another option. This due to the lack of constancy in the defense, which became even more evident after the sale of Khellven to CSKA. The side, even, has stood out in Russian football.
But this particular season, Khellven was heavily charged by the crowd. Even though he left in September, he ended up being the most active side. Of the 69 Athletic matches in the year, he was in 42.. But Madson, in theory his mate, played 39, making it very clear how they alternated in position. And shirt 22 had a long stop time at the end of Brasileirão, period in which Cuello made twelve matches as an improvised wing In the extravagant scheme set up by former technician Wesley Carvalho. Erick also worked in the sector.
To come and play at Athletico
And there was the frustrated passage of Bruno Peres, which was marked by the bad performance in Atletiba. He was later removed to lose weight, and only returned at the end of the Brazilian Championship. That's why Athletico wants a right-hand side to come in and play. O plano A é Leonardo Godoy, argentino de 28 anos e titular do Estudiantes. The side is in the sights of other Brazilian clubs such as Botafogo, Cruise and São Paulo, and also River Plate. The 11 assists of Godoy this season draw attention.
A second option well evaluated within the Athletic is Claudinho, highlighted by Crisis in Series B The Tiger has risen to the first division. He already has 97 games for the Santa Catarina team, where he arrived three seasons ago, coming from Atlético-MG. At 23, he has the profile that Hurricane loves – a young player, who can give technical and financial results. The red-black plan is very clear: we need to adjust the defense. With the coming of Mateo Gamarra and a new side-right, the sector will gain new face.
