The former Atletico Madrid star, himself a B team convert, believes the rising stars are only in the right place if they believe in the project.
Barcelona’s Alen Halilovic and Real Madrid’s Martin Odegaard are only at the right clubs if they were convinced by the project rather than potential fame and fortune, according to former Atletico Madrid star Veljko Paunovic.
Both youngsters have been playing with their respective clubs’ B teams since making headline-grabbing moves to the Spanish giants in the past 12 months. But Paunovic, himself a former B team graduate at Atletico, says the players are in the right place so long as they are there for the right reasons.
