In the exciting 25th round of the rippling La Liga, Espanyol started a thrilling battle with Sevilla at home. The first half was a storming affair, with Rafa Mir scoring the first goal for Sevilla, while our man Martial was withdrawn due to injury. In the second half, Darder scored a header to equalize the score, but Conde left the game with a red card. In this round, Wu Lei unfortunately failed to get a chance to play, and finally the Spaniards and Sevilla shook hands 1:1, without a win for six consecutive rounds.
Looking back at the last round of the league, Spaniards and Barcelona played to a 2:2 draw, with Wu Lei as a substitute for 15 consecutive rounds. Sevilla, as the favorite to win the title this season, accumulated 50 points in the first 24 rounds and ranked second in La Liga, only 7 points less than Real Madrid, which has played one more game. Facing the strong enemy, Wu Lei has never been able to gain the trust of the head coach. Looking at the Spaniards' midfield configuration, it seems that Wu Lei has no chance of getting into the starting lineup, and his chances of playing are not even as good as those of Tomas and Puado, as well as Meléndez, Villena, and Di Mata.
Recently, news about Spaniards' relegation team Alaves' interest in bringing in Wu Lei has been spreading, but the two sides do not seem to have reached a unanimous agreement on the transfer.
Wu Lei's plight in the Espanyol team is gradually consuming the patience of Chinese fans. From the messages on social media, the fans expressed their dissatisfaction with the decision of the Spanish club and its manager, while many fans also expressed their dismay that Wu Lei chose to stay in the team to "watch the ball on the sidelines" instead of considering a transfer.
