The striker of Rayo Vallecano, Raúl De Tomáshe is recovered from the disease that has kept him away from the team’s calls since the end of November and willing to count again for the Franjirrojo coach, Iñigo Pérez, with the purpose of debuting in the league this season.
De Tomás joined the training with the rest of his teammates last week and claims to feel “well” to play again with the franjirroja shirt, which he has not done since last October 29 in the Copa del Rey against Villamuriel, in his only game this season, where he scored two goals.
“It has been a complicated stage for me in these last two months. But in the end, that break is needed to put things in place and feel good. The truth is that it has been very good,” said the Madrid striker to ‘One Toro TV’ in his first statements once he has left the tunnel of his illness.
The case of RDT, as is known in the football world, has been surrounded by secrecy since he stopped entering the plans of Iñigo Pérez. The last time he sat on the bench of Rayo was on November 24 last year at the Sánchez Pizjuán stadium against Sevilla.
The club spoke of a “common illness”
Before the next game against Athletic Club at the Vallecas Stadium, coach Franjirrojo announced that he suffered “an important flu process” that had prevented him from training for several days. Amid the rumors for his disappearance of training, the club reported that RDT had “a common illness” and that he was discharged with the control of medical services.
The striker formed in the Real Madrid quarry, 30, put his boots again on February 11 to start working alone in the Sports City of Rayo and last week, he was inserted with the group. “There is less,” said the player on his social networks last Friday to confirm his recovery, which accompanied with a change of appearance when he dyed blond hair.
Iñigo Pérez continues to advocate for prudence
In view of the sensitive of his case, Iñigo Pérez insists that he must act patiently. “You have to be patient. When someone is outside and we see it inside we want to help us soon. That’s what we are in. He is happy, excited and training. We have to go slowly,” recommended the Navarrese coach last Saturday.
Raúl de Tomás began his second stage in Rayo in September 2022 with a contract of five years after becoming the most expensive signing in the history of the Madrid club, after paying Espanyol about eight million euros, plus three in variables. Since then, he has only scored five goals, the last one on February 18 of last year against Real Madrid by penalty, in Vallecas.
