Valeron back at Riazor: return of an idol

This is not your average matchday for Juan Carlos Valeron. The Canary Islander is gearing up to set foot back on the hallowed turf at Riazor, the stadium where he conjured up myriad moments that the RC Deportivo fans will never forget.

For just the second time, the veteran midfielder will line up in A Coruña sporting the colours of hometown club UD Las Palmas, whom he joined after leaving the Galician outfit. The first occasion came back in 2014, down in the Liga Adelante.

The Riazor faithful are sure to serve up a well-earned tribute to the maestro who gave them such great service in the number 21 shirt and whose silky heyday remains forever etched on their memories.
