Israel Alba is the third right-back in Millonarios: what about other positions | Colombian Soccer | Betplay League

After a frustrating first semester in which the main target once again slipped away, millionaires makes changes to his payroll thinking about achieving star 16.

As happens in almost all preseasons, the fans expressed their disagreement on social networks due to “the little investment” that is given to the staff of Alberto Gamero and demanded reinforcements from the hierarchy.

So far, the residents of the capital have announced two reinforcements: Luis Carlos Ruiz (front center) and Israel Dawn (Right side). Although the first could be a solution to the lack of goals (he was one of the top scorers in the first half), the second generated some controversy.

The foregoing is not due to his technical conditions or soccer level, even that he has played in Equity is a positive aspect considering that he does not need to adapt to the height. The issue goes through his position on the field.

Alba, 27, will be the third right-back on the squad, along with Elvis Perlaza and the youth squad Ricardo Rosales. This while on the other side there is only Omar Bertel.

Even throughout the semester this inconvenience was evident: when Perlaza was injured, Rosales entered and did well; when Bertel was injured, he had to improvise Murillo (he had already occupied that position, but he is still a central defender) and then Perlaza himself, that is, total improvisation.

The only solution that can be found is that Alba is the new starting right back for Gamero and his substitute is Rosales, while Bertel would fight with Perlaza on the left. There would be no other reason for hiring the Manizales native, beyond the fact that in his beginnings as a Once Caldas player he played some league duels for that band.

With the above on the table, several questions arise: was it necessary to bring a third right back? Wasn’t it easier to find a left back so as not to improvise? Will Rosales still have a chance? Isn’t there a left side with projection in minor categories?

For now, press versions suggest that the board’s only priority is the hiring of another attacker…
