For the technician is important to handle the two profiles inside the saga but for the moment does not have any left-handed player that of course work in the position.

In fact, the ex Chelsea would be above Eric García like fourth head office and would be the direct spare of the Danish when it can not be available by injury or technical decision. This leaves in the air the incorporation of Iñigo, more still after the recent interest of the Athletic Madrid in doing with his services.
