Rui Borges’ special plan revealed to unlock Sporting star’s potential | OneFootball

Rui Borges wants Geovany Quenda to occupy more central areas and play with greater confidence. The green and white coach recognizes numerous abilities in Sporting’s winger and has a plan to make the most of his offensive qualities.

The first part of this plan, according to the newspaper A Bola, is to enhance the use of Geovany Quenda in more central areas of the pitch. The young green and white player earned a spot in the squad under Ruben Amorim, occupying the flanks for Sporting, which also required several defensive actions in the 3x4x3 system.

The system change implemented by Rui Borges has revealed other qualities in Geovany Quenda. Coach Rui Borges believes the player can stand out in more advanced areas of the field, so he has been used as a winger, but often occupies central spaces instead of staying wide on the touchline – he is even starting to be seen as a good option to replace Francisco Trincão, playing in the number 10 role for Sporting.

This measure is the first step to maximizing Geovany Quenda’s qualities, something the winger welcomes. The other part of the plan is to give the player confidence. Rui Borges has encouraged the academy product to take risks, make decisions in the final third, and, above all, to dribble and shoot more, without fear of taking chances.

The truth is that the plan seems to be working. Rui Borges has already seen Geovany Quenda surpass the number of goals he scored in the entire previous season, and the player, who even started the season as a substitute, seems to be increasingly important in Sporting’s attacking play.
