Israel Suero goes from substitute to untouchable at Castellón

Israel Suero has established himself as a key player for Castellón after going from impact sub to untouchable, with a decisive display in Castellón 3-0 Las Palmas. Against Las Palmas he set the tone with a stunning free-kick goal, underlining his current scoring form and taking him to four goals this season.

His summer was shaped by interest from Maccabi Tel Aviv: a proposal arrived in early September, when the Israeli market was still open and Suero was seeing fewer minutes. Pablo Hernández then persuaded him to stay, and the turnaround showed quickly. On 6 September, vs Albacete, Suero played the final half-hour and scored in a 2-0 win.

Since that match, he has strung together six consecutive starts, becoming especially influential in the build-up. Castellón have also moved past the departure of Álex Calatrava and are pushing into promotion places, with Suero among the main reasons for the momentum, as reported by Marca.
