The striker comes from Real Madrid, which keeps 50% of his rights, after his loan in Getafe
In the coming seasons in Elche, Álvaro Rodríguez will play after the Real Madrid agreement and the Ilicitan Club, as Matteo Moretto said last week. The Uruguayan striker played on loan last season at Getafe and is now starting a new adventure in the Ilicitan Club, recently promoted to LaLiga EA Sports. It is a transfer in which Madrid retains 50% of the rights.
Under Bordalás he played 26 games on Getafe last season, in which he scored three goals and gave an assist. They were not the numbers that the striker dreamed of, which despite everything remained the confidence of different Primera clubs. Finally, it was Eder Sarabia's Elche that has shown the most interest in getting the services of the Real Madrid youth player.
His physical strength and his good ball treatment, in addition to his finish, fit the style of the new coach, who wants to maintain the philosophy in Primera that he has shown in Segunda to go to Elche. It is a luxury reinforcement for a team that will initially fight to retain the category.
The debut of Álvaro Rodríguez could be against his former team, Getafe, on July 30 in La Torre (Murcia).
