Hugo Duro Is Finally Home | OneFootball

The Spaniard has been an ever-present, either playing on the left or centrally in our attack, notching in the quarters, semis and final of our dazzling Copa run. True to his name, he has also shown remarkable durability, steering clear of injuries despite Jose Bordalas’ demanding style.

Even as he settles in, Duro is not one to put his feet up. He knows there remains much work to be done following a bittersweet season for the Bats.

“It has been a sweet and sour season. At the end, we were almost there (for the Copa). But the general feeling is good and the team is doing their best to be as high up the table as possible,” said Duro.

This relentless pursuit of success is seen in his training ground attitude. He takes every miss hard, shouting in frustration. Even during a routine rondo session, he gets to his knees in frustration when he commits an error.

It is no surprise then that when asked about his dream in football, he is grounded and focused. “My dream is to continue growing and to become a better football player.”
