Be the Hero Quarry allows you to Envigado have a large number of figures who have passed through the team and who, after succeeding abroad, return to contribute.
That is what Ramiro Ruiz, president of the club, says with pride and even more so now that the hiring of Dorlan Pabón. It is also mentioned that other footballers formed there could return, including Fredy Guarín and Giovanni Moreno.
“Dorlan is a youth player, a son who returns after having conquered world football to bring all that experience and knowledge to this group of young people who, we know, need some references to overcome the complex moment that the team is experiencing,” says Ruiz.
It must be remembered that Envigado will begin the second semester in box 17 of the relegation, one place away from directly losing the category, so it has to achieve good results.
Ruiz acknowledges that he maintains permanent contact with all the club’s former players, whom he considers like sons, and does not rule out the return of any name of those who have passed through there.
“The doors of Envigado are always open for them, that’s why we are looking out for everyone. We are happy with what Fredy (Guarín) is doing to recover his physical condition, we have never been separated from him, from his family and we will always be willing to hug him, support him, because he is also a great human being,” says the leader.
Likewise, it confirms that the orange team is looking for four experience reinforcements for the goalkeeper positions (hopefully one of international stature), center back on the left, midfielder and winger, of which the last three are already advanced, who hope to make official the next week after medical evaluations.
Duke is not on the radar
Regarding the option of Jéfferson Duque, the president mentions that it is not among the positions they are looking for, since they have 4 players for the attack. “I know Jéfferson, but we have never considered that alternative since we have Jeison and Bairon Garcés, and two promises like Santiago Londoño (2008) and Hernán Castañeda (scorer in the Primera A and the U-20). But we do value a lot that a player like Jéfferson at some point would like to be in Envigado.”
Although the Paisa club has consolidated Johan Felipe Parra in the goalkeeper position, Ruiz argues that given the current needs of the team they must reinforce that area to have greater competition among the goalkeepers. Maintaining their place in the First A is the main objective of the second semester.
Envigado will travel to Bogotá this Sunday to do preseason and the reinforcements will surely arrive there.
This Saturday, at 9:00 am, at the South Sports Center, the club will hold the official ceremony with the fans after the arrival of Dorlan Pabón.
On the subject of the U-20 World Cup, he confirmed that it only affects them in a duel against Águilas Doradas and they are going to ask for a postponement until the following week.
