'El Diablo de Cieza', as his companions and friends affectionately call him, has become the banner of ElPozo Murcia Futsal for his image of sacrifice and ambition of triumph.
The one that always defined the charcutero club with which he has won four Super Cups and two Copa del Rey since he entered the first team in 2011, after going through the lower scales.
He is a player who scores goals and raises the team.
To the list of local athletes who are very loved and admired in their hometown must be added Alejandro Yepes Balsalobre.
The photo is already there, with him attending the protocol ceremony of the pavilion that bears his name with the Councilor of the Presidency, María Jesús López, and the Councilor for Sports, Carlos Semitiel.
The power forward, who is going through an extraordinary moment of form at his 30 years, received Sunday affection from the cezanos.
Alejandro Yepes Balsalobre (Cieza, 1990) returned to the track that saw him grow.
To the old Neighborhood Hall in Los Albares.
To the field that now bears his name - Álex Yepes Pavilion - in recognition of the trajectory of the highest local player in his position, with numerous participations in international competitions and many years in the Spanish futsal elite.
And Cieza received the '10' of ElPozo Murcia Futsal with a match between former teammates and friends of the charismatic player in the remodeled municipal compound.
Along with that friendly meeting, there was also an exhibition between the smallest of the Cieza Indoor Soccer Club and the Athletic Cieza Indoor Soccer School.
Applause was heard yesterday at noon at the doors of the remodeled sports venue, where dozens of people clothed the protocol ceremony chaired by the Councilor for Presidency, María Jesús López, who excused the absence of Mayor Pascual Lucas for an indisposition.
In his speech López praised the sports figure and the human stature of one of the most beloved and admired Murcian club players, in their ranks and in others.
In the words of the municipal official, "he is an example of an athlete for all the children of Cieza".
With the Councilor for Sports, Carlos Semitiel, present, together with representatives of the Municipal Corporation, all the assembled applauded.
For his part, the mayor of Sports said of the honoree that it is, above all, "faithful reflection of a sportsman who has managed to reach the top with effort and dedication."
Yepes also wanted to say a few words to thank the City Council because "it is a pride and an honor that a futsal pavilion bears my name".
The denomination has been the result of a full agreement adopted in 2017. During the attention to the media, the player devoted much of his intervention to praising his team and very little to his sports career, which stands out for having been proclaimed individually as Best Player Revelation of the National League of Futsal 2012 and Best Pivot of the same in 2013.
El Pozo Murcia Futsal calmed him instantly when the shirt of the first team in the 2011-12 season was sheathed.
It was a colossus.
Power, claw, delivery, scoring instinct.
His strength to ascend the attack was surprising.
His safety and his grip gave him ownership at the first moment.
And all those virtues remain intact.
The prestige one has to earn every day.
Season to season is the best power forward.
Its evolution is constant.
Experience has given him serenity.
In the same way you have to praise your passage through the national team.
Because it is a fixture in the Spanish National Team with which he was proclaimed European Champion in Belgrade 2016, and won the Silver Boot.
