Lucas Pérez: “We left with a bittersweet taste”

Lucas Pérez is sweet. He has eleven goals in the First and is the most successful national scorer. It is an absolute success that has raised all expectations about him. No one remembers Munir or Calleri anymore. The only one that shadows him in the imaginary alavesista it is your partner and friend Joselu Mato.

“The draw in Leganés is good but when we put ourselves ahead in minute 2 of the second part, we left with a bittersweet taste. I think it is a great point that brings us closer to the goal of permanence, “said the Punta Coruña.

The week ends in a clash against Valencia in Mendizorroza. “Before our people we will try to win. In Mendi we are having a good season and now we start adding more than in the first round, “he added.

The albiazul fans have been very nervous in recent weeks since Lucas sounded as a substitute for Dembélé for Barcelona. To have lost the Galician striker would have been a good economic operation (15 million euros) but Garitano's team would have lost much edge.

Lucas says that, in addition to Barça, he was able to go out to other teams who had asked about him but his decision was to continue in the Alavés. In the summer market, many things can happen but, in January, his approach was to continue in Vitoria and focus on the work he started there last July when he returned from England to make the preseason in the Basque capital.
