Jon Martín — 2006 🇪🇸
The most prominent young defender and the one most talked about over the last few hours after the Copa del Rey final against Atletico Madrid. Honestly, I had heard the player's name before because of Real Madrid's interest in him.
But this was my first time really watching him, and I understood why a club like Real Madrid has its eyes on him — after yesterday's match I watched the replay of Real Sociedad vs Levante from a few days ago. The player is absolutely excellent.
A model of a modern defender: calm in his decisions + highly accurate passing and outstanding in building from the back — that is what has truly helped him at Real Sociedad.
The most important thing I noticed in the last match is that he leads the defensive line brilliantly. Even with more experienced players beside him, you can feel his football maturity.
