Rufete: “Resign? If I were the person in charge I don't know if I would consider it”

Is the figure of the new coach essential? When will it be named?

We have to wait to close the season and then the decisions will be communicated. There is little left and we are practically in the next season. You have to work with enthusiasm and want to look to the future.

Is the interest in Vicente Moreno true?

Many names will come out. Tomorrow we have a game. The season will close on Sunday and from there everything will move quickly because we need a template to move up. For this you have to order everything from the coach to the players.

How would you define the Identity Area?

It is an area that we will explain in due course. It will be dedicated to seeing the performance of the player and choosing the profile we want, not only in the market, but at home. We will make an elite group to accelerate the processes and to know what moves in the first team.

In Valencia they talk about the failure of the Lim project, just like Chen's. Can you manage the sports area comfortably with the president in China?

I was there and now here. Everything needs time. The time of the people and the club model, mainly. Perhaps in some moments the speed is another, but Chen is pending and attentive to everything.

Has your figure eroded when exposing yourself as a coach?

Two games left and I'll go back to my place. The reviews are good if they are professionally, but not for me. We are all part of a project. Identity is one thing for me and for another it will be another. Since I made this decision, I have been working to change things. You try to do your best and for the good of the club. It is necessary to generate illusion from places like the quarry. And convey that we will have a template in which people feel identified

Do you regret having made the decision to take the team?

It was a decision. I was asked to be here. The matches were complex, the situation was delicate. I try to do my best.

How can you train players to whom you negotiate your exit?

The exit has not been negotiated with anyone, it is part of the process that begins on Sunday. We must do it well, those kinds of things are important.

Who decides the name of the coach?

The club handles names since this option was considered. The names are on the table and we will appreciate them here. I can propose the ones that I think are convenient and from there other parts of the club will decide.

Is your idea to start the preseason with almost the staff closed?

The sooner we have the players, the better. You have to accelerate to start the preseason with a high percentage of the staff.

Chen said he was responsible but the sports area was led by Perarnau. Are you part of it or do you feel like a victim?

I am a responsible party, but each person has his place. I want to exercise it from the part that we fight for the interests of the club, doing with humility from the best possible. Let everyone draw their conclusions. There are people who believe that I am the most responsible, I think I am a responsible party.

Has resignation been attempted?

If I were the person in charge I don't know if I would consider it. I am responsible for the first team, I never did anything at the academy. You have to stand up for the club and that is what the fans ask for. Things are built by working hard and fighting for the club and for what you believe in.
