INFO:
José Luis Rico was the right back of Zaragoza for almost a full decade (1968-1977). At the beginning of his career, he played as a central defender. From the moment of his move to Osasuna onwards, he played the role of right-back, although he could move to the opposite flank if necessary. Rico was more of a technical player than a strength player. "I was more of an assist, then goal. And I'm not talking about crosses from midfield, but about getting to the back to put it in". Rico was a fairly offensive full back, decently fast, who tried early crosses. However he was also very active on the defensive side and it was no wonder that he would run up and down the right flank. other foot almost not existent. Pundonor, very concentrated in marking and, above all, opportunistic gallops on the right side - that was Rico.
