Alberto Moleiro and the controversy over the escape of youth players from Geneto to Barranco Seco. Pedri, Kirian Rodriguez, Alberto himself, Juanma Herzog…The princes of Teide want to wear yellow. The ’10’ of UD Las Palmas, born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, is one of the banners of the quarry and the first team of Garcia Pimienta.
Questioned by the phrase of Mauro Pérez, sports director of the CD Tenerife, that urgent measures would be taken, the ’10’ raises his voice. Loud and clear. “All the Canarians like to play for UD Las Palmas.”
In relation to whether he sees winning gold at the Paris Olympic Games -Moleiro is on the pre-list of 50 in Denia-, he revealed that Mika Marble is also preselected. “We will go little by little, calmly. I saw that I was on the Olympic pre-list, just like Mika Mármol. I am happy, but I have to work during the season to end up in the definitive relationship. But I am focused on the Rayo game [sábado y desde las 13.00 horas en el Estadio de Vallecas].
Regarding whether he would renew Pimienta until 2035 – for ten more seasons – he acknowledged that the Barcelonan’s work on the bench is honorable. “Pimienta is doing very well in Las Palmas. There are the results. The whole time he is here will be good for us.” He admits that he needs to “shoot more on goal” to improve his offensive performance. He only has one goal after completing the first 20 days. “I need to score some more goals; I would like that and I’m working on it. Also to have more presence in the area, more incisive. But I value that it is my first season in the top category and I will continue to improve. Above all, I enter with great enthusiasm in this second round and I know I can progress,” he said with a tone of humility.
Mauro Pérez’s phrase It came to the fore in the Gran Canaria press room. The sports director of CD Tenerife assured that he is “glad that Kirian, Moleiro or Juanma are doing well, because I know them and their surroundings. Talent will always come out, but we have to prevent all the talent from escaping. It has to be compensated, but it is a medium-long term process. This is how Moleiro responded: “The Tenerife players go down very well here. There are many examples like Pedri, Kirian, me or Juanma now. All of us canaries like to play in the Las Palmas Sports Union. In my case, I am very happy that they bet on me and that I got to where I am, I owe a lot to UD.”
He was also transferred if he sees playing for Barça or a Premier team next season, but he only thinks about yellow. “I have a contract here [hasta junio de 2026] and I don’t think about my future.”
Beat Lightning
He rejects being a favorite against Rayo and does not trust that they will have less rest after playing in the Copa del Rey against Girona. “It’s a small field and people push hard.” Now, in First Division he feels more comfortable: “I detect more spaces, the rival presses you less and there is more talent, more level.” Furthermore, he trusts that Kirian Rodríguez can achieve full international status.
