There’s been plenty of Venezuelan action in Spain these past 7 days, with midweek and weekend fixtures, goals, and assists. As always, we have it all covered for you in a handy thread!

Roundup below⬇️ 1/7
Primera Iberdrola:
Wednesday 27/01 (Matchday 17)
Real Sociedad 5-1 Real Betis
Betis’ difficult season continues under a new management team. Oriana Altuve played the 90’, but service to the striker was minimal. It is a frustrating campaign for a finisher at her peak. #futfem
Thursday 28/1
Levante UD 3-0 Atlético de Madrid
Deyna Castellanos played the whole game, but it was a rare defeat for Atleti who beat this exact opposition in the Supercopa final earlier this month. Days later, Castellanos would return to scoring form. #futve#venex 3/7
Sat/Sun 30/31 (Matchday 18)
Atlético de Madrid 2-1 SD Eibar
Deyna Castellanos started and was instrumental in mounting a comeback after Atléti fell behind just 12 minutes in. She came off after 75’ but not before she had assisted the equaliser and scored the second. #futfem 4/7
Deportivo Abanca 1-3 Levante UD
Gabriela Garcia returned to the scoresheet & Michelle Romero came on at halftime, but their presence could not prevent Levante’s victory. Unfortunately, they have now lost four consecutive game and are four points adrift at the bottom. #futve 5/7
Reto Iberdrola:
Villarreal C.F 3-1 Alhama CF El Pozo
This second tier tie saw two Venezuelans come head to head. Defender Sandra Luzardo got booked at 74', but made amends with a goal at 89' for Alhama. Yenifer Gimenez started for Villarreal. 6/7
Primera Nacional:
Atlético ‘C’ 1-0 C.D. Olímpico de León
Karen Hidalgo and Jyoeldry Parra started both started with the normally prolific Parra coming off after 78'.
7/7. End of thread.

The 190cm 18yo striker will join the Belgian club from Metropolitanos having finished their top scorer in 2020, firing them to the Copa Sudamericana for the first time. The U20 international also attracted interest from others in 🇺🇦🇮🇹🇵🇹🇺🇸. #futve
Italian Serie A side Atalanta were also interested in taking Pérez on loan but Club Brugge activated the $250k release clause to sign him permanently on a 4-year deal. He’ll join the likes of Simon Mignolet & Bas Dost. #futve#venex
So what are the Belgian champions getting?
In 2019, Pérez interspersed minutes in the first team with finishing the club’s top scorer in the reserves, before establishing himself as Metro’s leading #9 with match-winning performances, such as a hattrick & assist vs GV Maracay. 👇
