Marcos Llorente - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Bags assist Llorente assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 1-0 win versus Uruguay.

He has started in two games at right-back for Spain in the group stage, with Pedro Porro as another option for the team.

Creates three chances Saturday Llorente recorded two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cape Verde.

Impact Llorente started at right back for Spain's opening match of the World Cup, playing an advanced role considering his side was on the attack for the majority of the match. He created three chances and recorded two crosses on the attack, though he played a bit further back than his left-sided counterpart Marc Cucurella. He also easily kept a clean sheet, recording two tackles and two clearances in his limited time defending Cape Verde's attack. Llorente's versatility should keep him on the pitch for most -- if not all -- minutes during this World Cup, and his ability to play on all three levels is a massive asset for Spain.

Impact Llorente ended the season with Atletico having provided four assists across 29 La Liga appearances in 2,184 minutes, continuing to demonstrate the versatility and quality that has made him one of the most useful players in the Spanish squad over recent years. The versatile defender brings the experience of having operated in multiple positions across the pitch for both club and country, and his ability to contribute defensively and push forward into dangerous areas gives Spain a genuinely different option to Pedro Porro on the right side. Llorente heads into the World Cup ready to take his chance if called upon and capable of performing at the highest level whenever coach De la Fuente turns to him.

Impact Llorente will aim to regain a starting role after completing his ban, possibly replacing Obed Vargas in midfield but also offering an alternative to Marc Pubill at right-back. The versatile man has failed to get involved in the score sheet in his last six games across all competitions, but he's a consistent contributor of crosses and tackles, and should enjoy meaningful playing time as he gets ready to represent his country in the upcoming World Cup.
