Rodrigo Buitrago, director of RBC Cazatalentos de Pereira and sports psychologist, leads the agreement with which the two Pereiran players Carlos Humbero Osorio and Juan José Cardona, traveled yesterday to Mexico, where they will participate in oversight sessions in which they will be able to show all their skills with the ball, seeking to obtain an opportunity, which has been scarce in their city.
What did you notice about the players?
“We saw their qualities, we made them a process of modernization and improvement of skills in the last two weeks and they were already able to travel to Mexico with the support of their parents and they will have an option in several teams in this country so that they can see them, they can have friendly matches and hopefully they can achieve their respective goals.”
Opportunity to those who have not had it
Similarly, Rodrigo Buitrago explained that his objective has been to be able to serve as a link between good players who have lacked more opportunities. “In recent years we have dedicated ourselves to detecting and selecting players from municipalities, neighborhoods, villages, looking mainly for those who have not had many opportunities. We have managed to bring players to Chicó, Patriotas and now in this first operation that we do with these two youngsters who were free”.
