The market
“The idea was that if the young players worked, there would be no need to go to the market so much. We had to find the balance and figure out what was missing and I think we found it. The signing of Olmo gives us balance in midfield, he has a different profile, we won with attacking quality.”
There have been offers for many of our players but let’s be clear that we don’t want to lose important footballers
Departures
“There have been offers for many of our players, but let’s be clear that we don’t want to lose important footballers. If we are building a team, we cannot break it. We have to increase the level, not lower it, and to sell some important football players is to lower it. We can not fall into the temptation to sell, but it was not easy. Not selling is very complicated because you can’t buy. But I was very clear that the important thing is not to sell important players and see what we have at home. The BET should always be the club.”
We have to find the balance and I think we have found it
