RC Deportivo Pablo Insua has been garlanded with the 'Best Defender in the 2013-14 Liga Adelante' Award at the '2014 LFP Awards Ceremony', seeing off competition from Yuri Berchiche (SD Eibar) and Jean-Sylvain Babin (AD Alcorcón) thanks to his stand-out performances.
Last season will forever remain in the memory of the young defender from Arzúa in A Coruña. Aged just 20, Insua had a season to remember as not only did he achieve promotion to Liga BBVA with the Galician side, but he also was one of the side’s best players. He was a regular, playing 39 games and contributing with three goals.
Insua’s rise has been meteoric. The youngster, who signed for Depor aged 12, went from being a promising academy player to a genuine star. He signed a contract extension with the club until 2018 last season, and was called up to the Spain U-21 side. Now, this prize puts the icing on the cake of a terrific 2013-14 for Insua.
"For me it is a huge sense of pride to win the prize. I want to thank my teammates last year, the coaching staff and all my family", said Pablo Insua, Best Defender in Liga Adelante.
