Miguel Ángel Russo has given him the captaincy of Saint Lawrence to Iker Muniain. It is a very unusual measure, because the Argentine club only gives it to homegrown players. Why then has that privilege been granted to a newcomer like the former Athletic Club forward? It is explained by the coach of the Almagro team himself.
“The captains are from the club, but with Muniain you can talk a lot and well, and I understood that it was time to give him the ribbon. Furthermore, he is in the middle and, with the new captaincy rule, he has the experience and tranquility to talk to any referee,” he said, convinced of the decision made.
