Diego Simeone had the opportunity to explain why he has not given so many playing minutes to Arthur Vermeeren this season, also taking the opportunity to argue why, in his opinion, other promising young players such as Vitor Roque and Arda Güler have so little playing time in their respective clubs
For the FC Barcelona and his 'inflate' is not unknown the name of Arthur Vermeeren, mediocentro Belgian of 19 years, the one who played in the Amberes and had two good meetings against the combined Barcelona in the phase of groups of the UEFA Champions League 2023/24. Why? As the native of Lier was in the list of possible incorporations of the club to reinforce the area of pivote. Nevertheless, during the past wintry market, finished linking to the Athletic of Madrid.
However, the adventure of Vermeeren in the cast 'colchonero' has been much more testimonial of what could have expected. Up to now, the canterano of the Amberes grieve has had opportunity to play in three duels of LaLiga EA Sports, adding a total of 83 minutes in the field. Besides, it has been acting in 19 occasions in what it goes of course, a surprising situation considering that the Madrilenian invested 18 M€, that can be 23 if they fulfil some variables, in him.
Why Arthur Vermeeren has not seen a lot of minutes with the Athletic of Madrid?
In relation with the fault of minutes of Vermeeren in the picture 'rojiblanco', the 'Cholo' has wanted to expose the reason during the previous press conference to the clash between the Athletic of Madrid and the CA Osasuna in the day 37 of LaLiga EA Sports. For this, has made a curious comparison with the cases of Vitor Roque in the FC Barcelona and Burn Güler in the Real Madrid, young promises that have been practically carried to the ostracism in his respective clubs.
"They are the expectations to be able to show that the footballer is a young boy, that has an important future and that has touched him play little as it has touched him play to Güler little in the Real Madrid or to Roque in the Barcelona also. They are young boys. And there are moments that can them use and there are others that it is necessary to expect that they can find this moment", commented the Argentinian.
Under this premise, can observe that 'Tigrinho' is not the only young promise of LaLiga EA Sports that struggles for having minutes in his group. In fact, between Vermeeren, Güler and he, the '19' of the FC Barcelona, is the one who has faced more commitments up to now, with 14 duels developed, gone on down the 11 of the Turkish midfield player and the three of the mediocentro Belgian. Nevertheless, in terms of minutes played, Burn has accumulated 350', in comparison with the 327' of Vitor Roque and the scarce 83' of Vermeeren. This leaves clear the complicated that it can be for the young players have opportunities and continuity in a big cast, that sees them like bets of future.
