Yuri Berchiche He is a man who always speaks clearly. Today he has shown it again in Lezama. The Zarautz winger has acknowledged that he came “with a loaded shotgun”, but just before appearing before the media in Lezama he has repented and has launched a more moderate message. Even so, he has left some statements to highlight after reappearing with the team after the pubalgia operation.

“The process has been so long that I don’t even remember. What a player always tries is not to have surgery. We try by all means not to do it. We opted for a conservative treatment and it is clear that it has not worked. We decided to operate and I think it was the best decision we could make. The sensations are very good and now I feel very good. It was a shame I didn’t have surgery earlier. There is no need to dwell on what happened”, said the Gipuzkoan.

The media have insisted on whether his coach’s statement made him feel bad. “I’m not going to answer that, it leads nowhere. All the comments and the bad moments have been experienced by me and this process shows who is by your side and who is not. There are certain moments and comments that I didn’t like, that’s the most I’m going to say. I don’t want to overthink it, it doesn’t change anything. We have to look to the future. Everything that comes to us is very beautiful”, he explained.

In the end my adductors were loaded. If it had not been so, I would have asked to continue. Physically and legs he was fine. The sensations are positive”, he stated.

This has to be noticed again on Thursday against Real Madrid”, he said regarding the game against the Whites, which will also start at half past nine at night.
