Guinea-Bissauan right-back Agostinho Antonio Masal Neto is set to embark on a new chapter in his football career, finding a home at Albacete in the Spanish second division.
Enduring a prolonged period of unemployment since July 1, 2023, Neto’s fortunes have taken a positive turn.
The 29-year-old player, hailing from Canchungo in Guinea Bissau, underwent trials in Spanish D2 over the past few weeks.
According to sources from Africafoot, Neto has successfully impressed Albacete, currently positioned 20th in Liga2.
Consequently, the club has extended an offer for a contract covering a season and a half, providing the talented right-back with a welcome relief.
Having previously played for Linares, CP El Ejido, and Berja CF, Neto is poised to make his mark in Spanish football once again.
Despite a decline in market value, currently standing at €50,000 according to Transfermarkt, Neto’s perseverance and the assistance of the agency managing his rights have opened the door for him to secure a testing opportunity.
This successful trial marks a significant milestone in Neto’s career, enabling him to overcome the challenges of recent months.
In the coming days, the details of Neto’s contract with Albacete will be finalized, marking the official beginning of a new and promising chapter in the talented right-back’s football journey.
As the football community awaits the unfolding of this career development, Neto’s resilience and dedication serve as a testament to the resilience of athletes in the face of adversity.
