The Forgotten Player of Super Depor - Juan Carlos Valeron

Juan Carlos Valeron was never the most talked-about player. He was only ever nominated for the Ballon d’Or once. But his career was truly remarkable and is well worth celebrating.
Juan Carlos Valeron is unassuming. He is a tall and slight evangelist, with a high-pitched voice, who is lauded for being one of the nicest people in football. He does not have a bad bone in his body; just a dead person’s tendon in his knee.
David Silva chose his shirt number, 21, in tribute to him. Andrés Iniesta described him as one of the few players he would pay to watch. Arrigo Sacchi lauded him in the same breath as Zinedine Zidane. Valeron was one of the finest midfield originators of his generation.

David Silva's hero and Deportivo legend, enough said. Silva also was mostly influenced by his playing style too.

El mago del balón, jugadorazo humilde si hubiese tenido un poco más de gol probablemente hablaríamos de un top balón de oro, en asistencias era el n°1, regate seco y pase al hueco inimitable.

Oh my word. I haven’t heard his name in 2 years. I even have his shirt I’ll look for it.

It looks like you have shirts of all the players from the Super Depor team.

Super Valeron💛

[@PerasgalGaming]

It could be interesting to show how many red and yellow cards he got in his career. He was a super clean defender

[@antoinecringemann]

I was a kid when these guys used to destroy the overrated and overpayed Galacticos

If you're talking about deportivo legends you should make a vid about bebeto

[@overthinkingfootball.]

Well wasn't my intention to do Deportivo legends but just so happens that Super Depor side had some outstanding players. I will make a video about Bebeto, but you will have to wait because I already have a few videos in making, so stay tuned.

He was better in 2002 imo. Although Zidane ended that domestic season with the Champions league volley which was awesome

[@oceanmike8516]

Aight hear me out. Do you think he was as Good as Fran and Djalminha?

[@overthinkingfootball.]

Well it's hard to say but he was definitely important player in that Super Depor teams especially in the time after they won the title and started winning games against some of the big clubs in Europe.
