Spanish attacker Samu Omorodion, who was born in Nigeria, has been praised by Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone for his consistent play thus far this season.
Samu Omorodion, a 19-year-old who transferred from Granada to Atletico Madrid during the previous summer transfer window, is presently on loan at Alaves.
Since beginning his loan trip at Alaves, the Spanish forward, who was born in Nigeria, has been in amazing form. In nine games, he has three goals for the 17th-place Spanish La Liga team.
Samu Omorodion would get the chance to play his parent club in a Spanish La Liga match later tonight, October 29, at 9 p.m.
Simeone’s team, who is now fourth in the La Liga rankings, may pass FC Barcelona, who is in third place with 22 points from 11 games, if they win.
If Omorodion recovers his scoring form against the Real Madrid powerhouses later tonight, though, he might end Atletico Madrid’s winning streak of five games.
When questioned about the child’s permanence before the match, Simeone, the Argentine strategist, showered the little player with compliments.
Simeone said to Diario AS, “You can see him (Omorodion) evolving in the games we’ve followed involving Alaves.”
He’s a youthful, strong man who moves quickly through large areas and plays the box really well with his body. He has a future with Atletico, therefore let’s hope he does well at Alaves. Despite his brief stay with us, he exudes humility and diligence. He is going to be a key player for our opponent starting tomorrow.
On May 5, 2004, Samu Omorodion was born in Melilla, Spain, to Nigerian parents. He has represented Spain’s under-19 and under-21 squads, although he is still qualified to play for Nigeria’s Super Eagles.
