Javi grace does not leave Valencia because he cannot, because he does not have the money he needs to compensate the club as his contract marks if he wants to leave and because Peter lim it does not provide a way out, at least not yet. But the Navarrese is looking forward to leaving the club he arrived at just two months ago and who believes he has been ignored, with the final icing on the lack of signings in the market that closed last Monday.
If there is not an unexpected turn of events, the Navarrese will lead the team tomorrow and an unprecedented stage will begin, with a coach leading a team in which he does not want to be.
After verifying that all the promises of reinforcements made to him before and after signing his contract had come to nothing, Grace requested a meeting with the president Anil Murthy to in turn have access to Lim, with whom despite being the owner of the club has never spoken. But today's two-hour meeting did not include a connection with the Asian investor.
Useless dialogue
Grace came to tell Murthy and other employees of Lim that it was best to part their ways amicably. That is, he asked to be allowed to leave without having to pay and without charging the remainder of the contract. Far from accepting the proposal, Murthy He insisted that they trust him and believe that he will make the most of a squad that has expressly asked him not to abandon them.
So two and a half hours after entering the club's offices driving his car, the Navarrese left knowing that his options go through mortgaging much more than anyone would do or expect that Lim believe that it is not convenient for you to have a coach who does not want to be on the bench and who can charge against the club at each appearance.
But the Asian knows that Grace He is not one of those and he does not move by the criteria that govern the world of football.
