Regarding the society that he has been putting together with Duván, Carrascal and Adrián Ramos, he said that “very well, I have felt comfortable in these last games being in that link between Carrascal and Duván, the biggest concern is that clean balls reach them or those who are and have a higher offensive volume ”.
