Keidi Bare, positive in his dream: “We will do a great role”

The wheel is turning again at Espanyol six weeks after the season ended in the Second Division. The squad came together again on Monday to undergo medical check-ups, on Tuesday they held their first training session at the Sant Adrià Sports City and Keidi Bare, this Wednesday, was the first protagonist in the press room. At 23 years old, the Albanian will live a special course, his debut in the highest category: “For a long time I had a dream, and I have achieved it. You just can't do anything, but thanks to the coaching staff and the teammates. We made it possible”, the midfielder reiterated twice.

A dream in which Keidi Bare played a fundamental role with his game in midfield and his emotional connection with his teammates and the stands, as many identify him as one of his footballers predestined to play for Espanyol. The Albanian has also referred to the gradual return of fans to the stadiums: “The fans are player number 12. It was difficult to play without them and I really want to see the people on the field. We will feel very safe. We have to do things well in the preseason and we will surely have a good year with our team. hobby”.

That is precisely what Bare was questioned about. First, on the market, taking into account that circumstances prevent Espanyol from strengthening in the short term. Despite the few movements that are expected, the Albanian is convinced that this squad is ready to meet the objectives in Primera: “I have no doubts, I see my teammates day by day and I stay calm. We are going to play a great role.”

We have to go with the enthusiasm we had last year, we can do it in First,” he predicted.

The season in LaLiga SmartBank is still a long time, a trauma at the beginning that ended up turning into a regeneration of the values ​​of the squad. Bare reflected on this: “Everybody had a bad time. We know that Espanyol is a First-class team. But we learned a lot: we have to fight to be as high as possible, we have worked to get there. We have to continue with enthusiasm and humility to do the right things. things well ”.
