Thierry Rendall is in his sixth season at Valencia but the feeling we have about him is that he has remained stagnant. He has not taken that step further…. The Portuguese full-back will, for now, be present at the end of the week in the Turia capital to start the first phase of preparation for the 2024-25 financial year.

But his situation is not progressing as expected in the team and he is one of the players who Enter the plan if an offer comes in, don’t think twice and sell it.
The defender arrived in 2019 in a most complex situation. With scarcely 19 years and with just a handful of games played in the elite with Sporting de Portugal (four games and 360 minutes in two years)was sold on the last day of the market for 12 million euros.
HE HAS PLAYED 110 GAMES IN FIVE YEARS, WHICH COMES TO AN AVERAGE OF 22 DUELS PER YEAR
That operation that was orchestrated for that amount raised many suspicions. While, on the other hand, it was the adaptation of the player that cost a lot that he felt comfortable. But years have passed and he has remained in the squad to the point of becoming one of the veterans.
That expected progression…
What happens is that That progression that was expected of him has not been such. Last season he lost that status of essential player. Foulquier he has them won the game at times which leaves a strange residue in this case. He is 25 years old, but he has not finished as expected and Valencia has him on the market.
