OUTLOOK
Alex is one of the best Spanish players from 2000 generations. He has gained great reputation in his country after leading Estudiantes to surprising national championship wins in youth categories against powerhouses like Barcelona and Real Madrid. Although Tamayo already plays on the really good level, he still has a considerable upside as a slasher and ball distributor. Given that and his intangibles he may have a real shot at becoming starter caliber of player in Liga Endesa.
