Claudio Echeverri debuts for Bayern Leverkusen despite defeat | OneFootball

The young Argentine talent added his first minutes in the Bundesliga and leaves in suspense how he will earn a place in the reconstruction of Leverkusen.

The offensive midfielder Claudio Echeverri made his first appearance at Bayer Leverkusen.

In the 39th minute of the second half of the match between Leverkusen and Hoffenheim for the first date of the Bundesliga, the "Diablito" came in for the Algerian Ibrahim Maza and played six minutes.

Despite the 2-1 defeat of "The Factory Team", the Argentine footballer found his first minutes in his new team, who suffered various important losses in the last transfer market and will try to seek a reconstruction based on young talent.

At 19 years old, Claudio Echeverri begins to establish himself in German football after his departure from Manchester City, where he was considered one of the club's biggest promises but failed to add significant official minutes in the first team. The lack of continuity accelerated his decision to seek new horizons and Bayer Leverkusen appeared as an ideal opportunity to relaunch his career in a competitive context.

His debut in the Bundesliga marks the beginning of a process of adaptation to a more demanding level, in which he will have to gain experience and confidence within a team that is going through a restructuring stage after the departure of several of its figures. Leverkusen trusts that, with time and continuity, the "Diablito" will contribute his imbalance, creativity, and talent in the last meters, qualities that could transform him into one of the key pieces of the project in the medium term and an offensive reference for the near future.
