Envigado boss Alberto Suarez has told young Watford striker Yaser Asprilla to be less selfish in order to develop his game.

The teenager, who is already an international, has returned to the Colombian side on loan after his move to the Hornets was finalised in January, with the club unable to get him a work permit to play in England at this stage.

Watford chiefs have high hopes for Asprilla and believe he will be good enough to play in the Premier League sooner rather than later.

However, his current manager believes he is trying to win games on his own and is not as much of a team player as he ought to be.

"The best way to accompany Yaser is for him to understand that there are 10 around him," Suarez told AS.

"Sometimes he thinks it's him and the other 10 don't exist. I can put Maradona, Pelé and Messi next to him, and if he If he doesn't share it, he's going to get into trouble, so the best way is for him to see himself, show him the videos and make him understand that football is collective, that he can't try to take out 10 opponents and then shoot on goal."

Suarez went on to insist that his firm message was delivered "with affection" and said that Asprilla undoubtedly strengthens his team.

"It is a public message that I send you, I hope you understand it because it is with affection, with love, but the accompaniment is part of it," he said.

"You can have the best company, but if you do not utilise it, it will be very difficult. However, who plays alongside him, he has to generate enough society to share responsibilities because he cannot be charged with all the responsibility of creating the team either.

"The team was different without Yaser and it should be better with Yaser, Yaser is a great player and he has showed it, but he has to be more collective and that is part of learning."
