Collector of individual distinctions in his first campaign at ABANCA Ademar León and his second course in the Plenitude League, Carlos Álvarez continues to reap the fruit of his superlative season in the elite of handball. Chosen as the best right winger, confirmed as the top scorer of the Plenitude League 2023/2024 with 198 goals and designated MVP by the ASOBAL clubs. Proud member of Ademar and a family saga with a great handball tradition that yesterday wanted to support, with a wide representation, their young star in his first appearance in the All-Star Team of ASOBAL. With a lot of humility and feet on the ground, without wanting to set limits. Carlos Álvarez is, without a shadow of a doubt, the name of this campaign in the top category.
Carlos Álvarez – MVP of the Plenitude League 2023/2024
“It was unthinkable, just being at the beginning among the five nominees for best winger is crazy. Having fit so well in Ademar with players of such quality, they make you play so easy and it's a joy. You go to the field without pressure and enjoying every moment. The truth is that I'm super happy, it's a dream”.
“It's clear that we've clicked from minute one, everyone, both with the whole structure of Ademar and coaching staff and teammates, and the fans. At the beginning, when there were those doubts, the fans have been with us supporting us in difficulties, it has been a wonder. I am delighted to be in a club as historic as Ademar and to be able to give them, also, the awards I have received”.
“It's a huge thing. In your head, I'm 20 years old, at no time do you think you're going to be nominated by people next to these phenomena, these monsters. Since I was 7 years old, I've been watching them on TV and today I'm sharing the ASOBAL Gala with them, it's a dream and a huge thing. It doesn't enter anyone's head”.
“After all, the people who are behind and who make all this possible, who help me in everything and to make the best decisions, this is dedicated to all my colleagues and, obviously, to the family who are always behind supporting, when it's harder and when things don't go so well. When things go well, this is all theirs and I am super grateful to everyone for all the support they always give me”.
“I must keep my feet on the ground, I still have a lot to grow and to train, but a player who wants to reach the top dreams of playing a Final4 or, even, bigger words, being someday with the national team. I have a lot to grow and what better place than Ademar in ASOBAL”.
