John Chetauya to be one of the few pleasant surprises at the start of the championship Elche CF. The youth team started playing last season when the team was already saved. A priori, he started as the sixth defender in this campaign. Even in the summer, the possibility of renting was considered.

Again, Francisco has confidence in the 21-year-old actor, who was born in Murcia and comes from a Nigerian family..

f in the first gameagainst BetisThe franciverde coach chose the defense of the three central defenders. with John, Enzo Roco and Pedro Bigasleaving it in Bench for Diego González. His debut couldn’t have been worse. After correcting a mistake by Roco in the 13th minute, Aitor was ejected from the game in an action he had to block Ruibal. He got the red card, and it looked like it could weaken his options to keep the minutes going.

It did not collapse after imposing a sanction against Almería and It shows in practice that he can play in the Premier League.. In fact, he was one of the most reliable defenders when Francisco gave him the chance.

Roco and Bigas formed the axis of the defense against Almería, Real Sociedad, Villarreal and Athletic Club de Bilbao.. After Chile’s disastrous first half against the Basques, Francisco didn’t hesitate to bet again on the junior squad at halftime. John came out, he succeeded and the Elche team did not concede any more goals after four goals in the first half..

last saturday, In a stadium as tough as the Camp Nou, the Almería coach once again put his trust in the young squad and lined him up in a triple defense this time with Gonzalo Verdú and Pedro Bigas.

Again before the first quarter of the match, Elche was missing one player due to the captain’s dismissal. The Franchiverdes had to defend four men and John had the difficult task of stopping Lewandoski and the Barça all-star squad. is attacking.

The young football player showed once again that he was ready to help Elche in this difficult moment and finished the whole match at a good level.

John Chetauya, while his teammates who can move on the defensive axis do not improve, screaming to stay in the top eleven. Actually, He has a good chance to be a striker again. at the resumption of the competition, the next October 3, in Vallecasagainst Lightning.

Gonzalo Verdú will have to take a penalty as he is expelled at the Camp Nou. Pedro Bigas is in doubt due to his micro-tear against Barcelona, ​​which forced him to withdraw from the match in the 74th minute. Argentina’s Fede Fernández has yet to debut.

taking into account Enzo Roco will have a hard time coming back for now due to his mistakes in the early days.; and that Diego González has always been behind the youth squad; Curiously, at the expense of Bigas’ recovery, John Chetauya is currently top of Francisco’s centre-backs list.

There’s still time for the fighting in Vallecas. But the young franciverde player has all the ballots to stay in the starting squad against Rayo. And if it does, it will be por his own values, because no one has given him anything. Our young team has played 148 minutes so far with their good performances.
