I saw a report after Miranda's last call up that Valverde and Pimienta agreed not to bring Miranda to the first team anymore this season. It seems they both think he is a great talent but it is far too early for him. That's also why the intend to send him on loan next season.
Right decision, I wanted Cucu to stay here instead last summer already, always thought he deserved his shot before Miranda, who was way too green. I guess now for Cucu it'll be even better, since he had a great season on loan with Eibar, so now he's actually plenty experienced in La Liga too. A more than solid back up until Alba slows down. We can always go for a new LB after that, if Cucu won't be ready at that point.
