Ecuador HubEcuador is looking for a striker who can score goals in the 2026 World Cup. Jeremy Arévalo, 20, is one of the few Ecuadorian strikers who competes regularly in Europe. The Racing de Santander striker scored again on Sunday, October 5, in the 3-0 win over Málaga, on the eighth matchday of LaLiga 2.
What happened?
Arévalo came off the bench and was decisive in sentencing the win, consolidating himself as one of the most effective players on the team led by José Alberto López.
Why is it important for Ecuador?
Arévalo, with dual Ecuadorian and Spanish nationality, had been called up by Spain's Under-18 team in 2023, but in January 2025, he accepted to represent Ecuador in the South American Under-20 Championship held in Venezuela.
What's next?
With an average of one goal every 85 minutes, Arévalo is one of the most prominent Ecuadorian strikers abroad. His performance in Spain's Second Division and his progress with Racing keep him as a name to watch closely.
