The Asturian team wants to end the season fighting for promotion positions and is determined to incorporate the players requested by the new coach
The decision to hire alvaro cervera as a new coach has been one of the great successes of Real Oviedo this season. Barely a few weeks have taken the coach for his hand to be noticed, being at the moment the Asturian team one of the rockiest teams in the entire category. Something that was the key to the coach’s success at Cádiz CF.
His teams are always built from the defense, giving the team a clear defensive identity that sometimes generates much criticism. But he is also a coach with a very clear idea of the game in attack. A game idea that is based on extremes. That is why Álvaro Cervera has asked Real Oviedo for a very specific player profile.
Cervera makes a new request to Real Oviedo
As we have previously commented, the sports management received a first request from the coach to sign a creative midfielder. Now the slogan is very different, as he wants to add a winger with speed and overflow to his project to provide the team with much more talent in attack. Something that is key for defensive teams.
And it is that Álvaro Cervera is clear that success depends on keeping a clean sheet and taking advantage of the opportunities in attack. Opportunities that in the majority are generated by the overflows by band. That is why he has requested the signing of a footballer who just a few days ago was playing the World Cup in Qatar with Australia.
The World Cup winger who wants to sign Cervera
This footballer is none other than Awer Mabil, who currently plays for Cádiz CF. This fact is key for the coach to be interested in signing him, as he knows that his past at the club could facilitate the operation. Even more so knowing the Cadiz team that the Australian soccer player could squeeze all the football out of him in a scheme like that of Álvaro Cervera.
The main problem lies in convincing Awer Mabil himself, who would have to take a step back in his career. The formula that Real Oviedo is thinking to please Álvaro Cervera is to request the transfer of the footballer until the end of the season. In case of promotion they will have a purchase option and in case of not doing so they will return to Cádiz CF. Of course, we will have to wait to see what decision the footballer makes, who wants to feel important again on the pitch in top-level football.
