Frías: versatility and aerial strength to boost Santos | OneFootball

Adonis Frías was one of Santos' main signings this mid-year. The defender arrives with high expectations and used his presentation press conference to explain how he can help the club get out of its bad phase.

The 27-year-old Argentine highlighted his versatility. He made himself available to play either on the right or the left, or even in the center, if coach Vojvoda opts for a scheme with three defenders.

“I already knew Vojvoda from Defensa y Justicia. He is a coach with a different energy, a very high intensity. He knows that I can play anywhere in defense, left, right or libero. I am multifunctional. I have no kind of problem. I will try to help in the best way”, he said.

In addition, Frías promised quality in ball output and a lot of desire on the field.

“I am a player who will always try to leave with a clean ball, I like to play out. I have to defend well too, of course. I am a player with a lot of intensity, who seeks to help teammates. I never give up. We have possibilities until the last minute”, he said.

“I will try to compete in all games in the same way, always for much more. I am a competitor, I like to win. We are in a moment that we need results. Every point is important for Santos.”, he added.

Finally, the 1.87m tall player also talked about aerial play. The defender, in fact, highlighted his desire to be a high-scoring defender.

“It is one of my great virtues (aerial game), both in attack and defense. I stand out a lot for this. I like it. I enjoy when I go to attack. I am a defender who likes to score goals too. I want to score many with Santos”, he concluded.

Adonis Frías' contract with Santos is until December 31, 2028.
