Unai Emery answered the doubts about the center of the defense by trusting the academy player Luismi, who already made his debut last season in La Liga and will now have a professional contract with the first team. With the always emotional number 16 on his back, Luismi becomes Emery's choice to secure the defense as the fourth center-back while waiting for Nico Pareja to recover from his injury.

At the club, the option of further strengthening the center of the defense was considered after the departure of Arribas and Pareja's injury, but the confidence in the Argentine's recovery and the arrival of Rami seemed to halt that bet. The solution comes from within with Luismi, who expressed his enthusiasm yesterday: "It's what I've always dreamed of, but hard work and perseverance are what make it become a reality overnight."

He will wear the former number of Antonio Puerta, reserved for academy players of the club. The player wants to gain Unai's trust and relies on versatility to achieve it: he can also play as a defensive midfielder in the Basque coach's tactics.
