Revealing himself last season by playing 16 matches with Real Madrid, versatile midfielder Thiago Pitarch (19) is champing at the bit at the start of the season. Never appearing with the first team, he had to make do with three appearances for Castilla. However, that does not mean that he is not part of José Mourinho’s plans.
Indeed, the Portuguese coach appreciates the player’s versatile profile and even asked him to stay as revealed A.S.. This summer, Thiago Pitarch was on the verge of being sold by the Merengues to Fulham along with Gonçalo Garcia, César Palacios and Manuel Angel. Nevertheless, José Mourinho’s veto was decisive.
