Nilson Angulo
22-Year-Old
Sunderland
Premier
Increasing role for Ecuador
Angulo is aiming to earn a spot in Ecuador's offense following his participation in recent EPL and international action.
ANALYSIS
Angulo's recent form makes him a player to follow heading into the tournament. The winger recovered from a physical issue shortly before the end of the club campaign and subsequently earned starts in Sunderland's final two matches, a positive sign regarding both fitness and confidence. He has also been impactful with Ecuador, scoring in two of the team's last three warm-up games. His profile is built around speed, dribbling and off-ball movement, making him a natural fit as a wide attacker. With competition for minutes still open, Angulo has a realistic chance to carve out a meaningful role if he remains productive.
