The left back position is one of the biggest discussions at Santos at the moment. Escobar and Souza are fighting for the starting spot and dividing the opinions of the fans. Who do you think should be the starter? Vote in the poll below!
Escobar has been getting more chances since the arrival of Juan Pablo Vojvoda. The Argentine was a starter in five of the six games with the coach. He only missed the 2-2 draw with Red Bull Bragantino because he was suspended.
Throughout the season, he has played in 35 matches, 29 as a starter, and has one assist.
Souza, on the other hand, had a good run among the starters under the command of Cleber Xavier, but returned to the bench with Vojvoda.
The young player stands out for his good offensive support. He has two assists in 19 games, of which he started 14.
Santos is in 16th position, with 28 points, three more than Vitória, who opens the relegation zone.
