We stop at an interesting interview that Munir gave to Cadena SER de Málaga and that really reflects the reality of the club after having managed to close its complicated stay in the Second Division. The goalkeeper from Melilla, international for Morocco, has been the least scored this season. 29 goals conceded in 38 games played (0.76 percentage). Third Zamora that a Malaga goalkeeper wins after Deusto (1972) and Gallardo (1987, this one posthumously because he died in the middle of that season).
As it is known, Málaga cannot sign footballers, except for the minimum salary (less than 80,000 euros) for the LaLiga penalty until it balances its gap with the salary limit (15 million euros). This forces Manolo Gaspar, sports director, and the judicial administrator, José María Muñoz, to hold tough negotiations with the soccer players who have higher salaries to agree to a reduction in accordance with the situation that the entity can assume.
Munir has a contract until June 30, 2021. And in this scenario, Cadena SER asks Munir the question. “Would you accept a salary reduction or, if applicable, leave Malaga? This is answered by the keeper. “I want to be here and enjoy it. I want to continue, I have a contract and I am happy here, I feel the affection of the people. Of course I want to continue“
And attention to this that he commented. “If the administrator comes and says that we cannot pay, I will be at Malaga's disposal so he needs it. If they need me to go, I'll have to go even if it hurts a lot. If I can help like this, then I will. I have not yet spoken to my representative, I did not want to know anything in this final section. I wanted to focus and now rest. I don't know anything about offers ”.
Munir focused during this course on saving the season like the rest of the footballers. “My only goal throughout the year was to save the team, overcome obstacles we have had and focus on sports and we have managed to save Malaga from a year that has been a disaster at an extra-sports level. Now we are not aware of the same, but it has a lot merit”.
But as we said, the situation is not pleasant because an Employment Regulation File (ERE) has been launched that affects about 40 workers. Feel responsible for the mentioned ERE. “I feel responsible, I have carried that burden for not having been promoted last year. You always think they would follow if we had gone up. I have been annoyed and I have a lot of affection for them ”.
If Munir left, Málaga should assume a very delicate situation because it would only have subsidiaries Gonzalo and Kellyan as goalkeepers. You should start the search for another solvency goalkeeper similar to that of the Moroccan international. A big problem of the many that the rectors of the club will have to assume.
