Ángelo Preciado

Ángelo Preciado is Ecuador's first-choice right back, a marauding presence whose overlapping runs and physical intensity have made him a fixture in La Tri's setup since the 2022 World Cup. Developed at Independiente del Valle, he earned a move to Genk before spending two productive seasons at Sparta Praha in the Czech top flight. His 2026 switch to Atlético Mineiro brought him into one of South America's most competitive environments. Comfortable defending one-on-one and dangerous in transition, Preciado's directness down the flank gives Ecuador a consistent attacking outlet from deep.
