The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 national team coach promoted the youth academy graduate to the first team for the 2012/13 Spanish top flight football campaign.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RCD-Mallorca-c40326 youth academy graduate, Abdon Prats, got the nod for the first team. The teenager could not hide his emotions after the announcement was made public on the club’s official website.
Reflecting on the prospect of being coached by Joaquin Caparros, Abdon shared that it will be a "spectacular" and "a beautiful experience." He added that the possibility of playing all season with the club's first team is great and he will make the most
of the opportunity that has presented to him.
Continuing on the topic, he promised that he will do his best to earn the trust of the coach, who has worked with Spanish greats in his career.
"They train you Caparros is spectacular, is a beautiful experience. I have come to prove I can be the first team and when the coach needs someone to tell me the branch," said Prats.
With Mallorca’s well documented financial crisis being the worst kept secret in world football, Joaquin Caparros revealed at the start of the 2012/13 summer transfer window that he will give quarry players a shine to prove their worth.
When quizzed about the stance of the former Spanish national team’s tactician, Abdon stated that it is great to hear such remarks and is very excited about working with a coach who is ready to entrust youth academy players with more responsibility.
"It's an extra motivation you have a coach who trusts in the quarry, we have to take because not often do these opportunities present themselves," he said.
Abdon took out time to talk about differences between the reserve and the first team. He remarked that there is an enormous gulf in quality between the two. However, it was the endearing support of the fans for the first team that Prats found the biggest
difference.
"The enormous difference is in the pace of play of reserve team when compared to the first team," the youngster commented. "I want to win at Mallorca and give the fans what they deserve."
