Joaquín positions himself with Haro and Catalán facing the Board

The imminent General Meeting of Shareholders of Betis continues to mark the current situation of the Verdiblanco team after the official announcement by the movement 'Another Betis is possible' to present itself as an alternative to the current leaders. Many eyes were on Joaquín: the Betis captain manages around 2% of the entity's shareholdings and his position was unknown after the appearance of these shareholders led by the figure of Lorenzo Serra Ferrer in opposition to Ángel Haro and José Miguel López Catalán. Through a message on social networks accompanied by a photo of the Betic fans in Milan, he was resounding: “It is another attempt to destabilize the club, and wrong from my point of view at the time, in the speech and in the shapes”.

Joaquín is clear that he is committed to giving continuity to the current leaders when trying to raise the level of the club in sports after several years of doubts and harshly criticizes the shareholders who lead the group 'This Betis is possible'. “Feeling them when they fill our stadium, suffer and enjoy with us, I can only say that it is not my intention to return to the past, I prefer to seek unity, bet on the present and look to the future, even knowing that mistakes have been made. The only tool that exists is the union around the thirteen bars and what this shield represents to achieve a great Betis once and for all and thus be able to one day give what you deserve so much, “he explained in words intended for the fans of the Betis.

The Meeting of 21-D will present a scenario of struggle between the current government and the alternative formed by some large shareholders of the entity that ask for more profound changes to stop the bad sporting moment that the Heliopolitan group is going through. “It is to them that we owe ourselves only,” Joaquín warns in his message, also alluding to the difficult situation posed by the current health crisis. The portuense finishes contract in Heliópolis next month of June, although at the moment it is an important piece in the plans of the current technician, Manuel Pellegrini.
