Brazilian attacker Ricardo Ferreira will be the last incorporation of Atlético Marte for the Apertura 2021 that will start on the last day of July, as confirmed by both the Martian leadership and the player himself from his native Brazil.
“With Ricardinho we close the quotas of foreigners in the team for the moment. He has the endorsement of Professor Ancheta and for now the only thing missing is the technician’s evaluation of the two Colombian attackers that we have (Ballesteros and Morán) to know if there will be a quota at the end. more or we will continue with them two, “assured Roberto Domínguez, representative of the capital’s team against the first division.
Ricardinho played in the Apertura 2020 with Isidro Metapán with whom he played 15 games (of 16 officials since the jaguars did not qualify for the quarterfinals) and scored four goals to be the second in the goal of the metapanecos behind the Trinidadian Jomal Williams who scored six.
The 35-year-old attacker did not play the Clausura 2021 after ending his contract with the jaguars and returning to Brazil where he decided to take a sabbatical tournament after the offers he received in the country were not what he was looking for and then start a private taxi business to mobilize factory personnel in your hometown.
“I decided not to play in the last tournament because the offers I received to continue playing in El Salvador were poor, there were a couple of teams there that wanted me but offered little salary, so when I arrived in Brazil I decided to partner with some friends to founding this taxi cooperative and we have maintained this until I received the offer from Atlético Marte ”, confessed the player who has already added 245 league games since 2015.
On accepting the Martians’ offer, Ricardinho stated that “we reached an agreement quickly, its president (Hugo Carrillo) called me, we talked, we reached an economic agreement and last Saturday I sent the signed pre-contract to seal the agreement with Atlético Marte, at the moment I am waiting to receive the air tickets, they are looking for a place and I hope to at least arrive in El Salvador at the end of this month to join the work of the professor (Nelson) Ancheta ”, he said.
