Andres Fernandez’s agent DAD: “Unión will always come first” | OneFootball

The representative of Diego Armando Díaz stopped by ADN Gol and spoke about the impact of his arrival at Unión and what could happen with his future looking ahead to next semester.

“Yes, the truth is that Diego arrived in professional football and adapted very quickly, which for him, you could say, was easy. But if we analyze it, he was a kid coming from a league without AFA training, who made it to the first division, adapted to a new city, to his teammates, to a club like Unión, and did it so quickly—he signed his contract on January 31 and already had his first call-up, if I’m not mistaken, on January 11, and well, he managed to score goals.”

“Well, it’s a very positive balance, Diego is very happy with the city, with the club, he feels very loved, and the reality is that Unión has the possibility to exercise the option until the 15th. What we know are just media rumors that they will do it, that they will move forward, but concretely and formally, we still don’t have anything.”

“The reality is that a great comprehensive job has been done between the club, with our support, the family, everyone contributed their bit. Diego adapted, as I said, very quickly, very quickly. I think that by mid-year, physically, he was doing very well, his body mass indexes were perfect, all thanks to work with the nutritionist and a planned program. He learned a lot tactically, which was one of his weaknesses, because obviously, not having formal training, it’s not the same playing in a local league as it is playing professionally, and that was probably the area that cost him the most. Today, in the matches he’s played, we see that he’s adapted very well to Madelon’s ideas, and well, as we see, he’s a goal scorer, he always has a chance. If we look at the numbers coldly, the reality is that this year he played 307 minutes and scored three goals, and for the goal against Belgrano, we still don’t know how they drew the line, but if you analyze it, he has a goal every 100 minutes and two shots hit the post. He’s a kid who’s always there, he’s a goal scorer.”

“Unión will always have priority, it’s the club that allowed Diego to reach the first division, he’s very comfortable, and after that, it will be decided—if they exercise the purchase option, Madelon will decide, that’s how it is, whether he will count on Diego or not. If they buy him and Leo decides to loan him out to get more playing time, well, all the options will be analyzed. There are options, he’s a goal scorer and number nines always attract attention, and well, there are many inquiries, both from Argentina and abroad, and we’ll see in these next 12 or 13 days what is decided.”
