Getafe have once again proven to be the surprise package in La Liga in 2019/20, with much of the credit going to coach José Bordalás.
One of the star men in Bordalás system is 24-year-old Uruguayan midfielder Mauro Arambarri.
Arambarri joined Getafe, initially on loan in 2017 as the Azulones returned to La Liga, on loan from Boston River after a failed loan spell at Girondins Bordeaux in Ligue 1.
Since then, he has gone from strength to strength, even earning a first call-up to the Uruguayan national team before the pandemic struck and postponed the international break.
This scout report will provide a tactical analysis of the Getafe mans performances in La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Europa League in 2019/20.
It will analyse his tactics within the Getafe set-up and how he could feature for Uruguay.
Mauro Arambarri Role
Arambarri plays on the right side of Getafes central midfield pairing, which is a four-man midfield in a traditional 4-4-2 shape.
Under Bordalás he has become the key man in the middle of the park alongside Serbian partner Nemanja Maksimović.
Arambarri tends to stick to the right-hand side of this duo but is neither the more defensive nor the more offensive of the two.
The duo take turns, with one bursting forwards as the other provides cover.
To further identify his role, it would show a greater reliance on his attacking strengths than in the case of his team-mate in the middle.
Whilst both act in the same way, with regular attacking movements, Arambarri is more regularly involved.
