Despite having a promising debut, his star took so little only he played with the shirt of Deportivo Coruna in three games during the season 97-98 which also he marked as deportivista zero goals.

This was a real problem for a player who cost the Deportivo Coruna the not inconsiderable figure of 500 millones de pesetas. His background as deportivista ended as it had started poorly with a period in which he could not even go summoned.
