Inaki Williams and Lamine Yamal dragged Spain to victory at Euro 2024, Samu Omorodion will he do it in the 2026 World Cup? The attacker is now a certainty for Porto and is one of the most prolific players in Europe since the start of the season.
The 20-year-old, for whom the Portuguese side paid 15 million euros into Atlético Madrid’s coffers for 50% of the fee, scored two more goals yesterday in the 3-3 draw in the Europa League against Manchester United. A sumptuous performance for the Portuguese press: “The young Spaniard, who already has a higher number of goals than the number of matches played, not only scored two goals against Red Devils but he came very close to scoring a hat-trick, denied by Onana in the 65th minute. He never turned his back on the fight and was also committed to the defensive phase.”
Omorodion scored 7 goals in 6 games with Porto, in which he remained on the pitch for 376 minutes: the average is one center every 53 minutes, truly extraordinary and worthy of great strikers like Haaland and Mbappé. Omorodion has scored in his first three games for his new team, equaling a result achieved in the past only by Soares, Falcao, Pena and Janko. De la Fuente, who decided not to call him up for the Nations League matches in October, is observing his growth with interest and could call him up for the matches scheduled for next month.
