In this battle, although Wu Lei entered the big list. However, there was still no chance to appear. This is already four consecutive league games he has not played. As we all know, Wu Lei has been marginalized in the Spaniards. But in the past, manager Moreno always gave him some playing time. But recently, after not playing for such a long time, and still lagging behind in the score (with 5 substitutions), he has no chance as a striker, which shows that Wu Lei has been completely marginalized. The winter window of European football can be said to have been opened, and Wu Lei should think about his future: in La Liga, he is difficult to do. No, just go to the European sub-league.
