Rafael Obrador picks Sporting target Yeremay Hernández as best team-mate | OneFootball

Rafael Obrador has named Yeremay Hernández, a Sporting target in the January window, as the best player he has played alongside.

Asked for the most gifted team-mate he has shared a dressing room with, he answered "Yeremay Hernández", a player he featured with at Deportivo da Corunha, speaking on the podcast El after the Post United.

He was not used by José Mourinho at Benfica, then became an undisputed starter at Torino. He said the Estádio da Luz was the stadium that impressed him most.

He left Benfica in January and said there is one shirt he regrets not requesting. "Nicolás Otamendi's. The one I swapped and that meant the most was Nico Paz's."

"In my first game at three, I picked up the ball with my hands, crossed the pitch and scored. My father was so embarrassed he took me out of football for two years."

This season with Torino, the 22-year-old defender is valued at 4 million euros. He has played nine official matches, eight in Serie A and one in the Taça de Itália, totalling 565 minutes and one assist.
