Elche's reliance on Fer Niño highlighted amid relegation slide
What happened
Elche have become overly dependent on Fer Niño's goals, according to a report by AS, which described a "Niñodependencia" at the club. The forward from Rota has scored six goals, and the report says the team's scoring burden falls on him because of the limited contribution of Ponce and Osorio.
Report details
The report says Elche arrive at the international break in a difficult moment despite Niño's tally. Their problems at home under coach Martín Anselmi have left them back in the relegation places. AS also noted that, a third of the way through the season, the team has shown its reliance on Niño.
