Pepelu He began his career in the first division of the Professional Football League at the age of 23, in a match that pitted Levante UD against Rayo Vallecano.
José Luis García Vayá, better known as Pepelu, is not the first time he has competed with the first team. He did it 6 years ago against RCD Espanyol. However, on that occasion it was a Copa del Rey match.
Now he is finally making his debut in La Liga, the dream to which every Spanish footballer aspires. It is true that he did not play the entire match, as he entered in the 78th minute replacing Pablo Martínez, but he was finally able to enjoy the acclaimed competition. "Yesterday was a very special day for me. Debut at home and in front of my fans. Thanks to my teammates for helping me and to all who have made it possible," he posted on his social media profiles.
This is his last year of contract with the club that has not entrusted him with as many minutes on the pitch as he expected, despite the fact that the Dianense player has aroused the interest of other clubs in the same category. However, in this last year he will have to prove his worth to gain time on the pitch and fight for the confidence of his coach.
