UD San Pedro Makes New Moves: Goalkeeper Antonio Izquierdo Released
UD San Pedro has made new moves in its lineup, releasing goalkeeper Antonio Izquierdo this Saturday. The club is making strategic changes as it aims to ascend in the league. Izquierdo leaves the San Pedro entity after playing nearly a hundred matches.
Jose Antonio Fúnez Joins the Red and Black Club
In Izquierdo’s place, another goalkeeper, José Antonio Fúnez, joins the red and black club. Fúnez comes from CD Mijas Las Lagunas, where he was also competing in the Honor Division. The new red and black goalkeeper also has experience playing in the Third Division.
UD San Pedro’s Strategy for the Second Half of the Competition
UD San Pedro is facing the second half of the competition with the goal of achieving a category upgrade. To this end, it has been a busy January for the club as they work to build a championship team. The two latest moves by the red and blacks took place this Saturday, with the goalkeeper position being the focus.
Antonio Izquierdo’s Departure Marks the End of an Era
Izquierdo’s departure marks the end of an era for a club player who has defended the San Pedro goal for the past four seasons, both in the Honor Division and in the Third Division, a category to which the team ascended with him as the starting goalkeeper. After three seasons as the team’s main goalkeeper, Izquierdo lost prominence this season with the return of Reina to the position. As a result, the club has released him after he played six matches this season.
Izquierdo’s Career with the Red and Black
In total, Antonio Izquierdo has played 92 matches with the red and black jersey, divided into two stages. The first was his debut season when he was still playing for the reserve team in the 2016/17 season, and the most recent stretch from 2020 to 2024.
