The bench, key decision

Granada has already launched its reconstruction process. Nico Rodríguez has just assumed command of the sports field in Los Cármenes and has a mountain of work ahead of him and endless decisions to make. The first and most important is the one referring to the bench. Input is the key decision of the project. The objective is to continue counting on Aitor Karanka. This was expressed by the sports director himself this Friday during his presentation.

“You have to talk to him, exchange impressions and sensations. I still don’t know what your idea is. We will get to work from now on. I do not want to set deadlines in any way, logically the visible head is the coach and you have to listen to him, value him, know what he asks for to continue. It is the only rush,” explained Rodríguez.

The choice of coach will be the cornerstone of the new Granada. Hence, it is essential to hit the tenant of the bench in search of the long-awaited return to the First Division. Relegation has been a very hard blow for Granada, which has set itself the goal of immediately returning to the top flight. The club wants Karanka to continue leading the Nasrid dressing room. The coach from Vitoria is the priority, but the renewed sports management also dives into the technical market in search of alternative guarantees in case the conversations with Karanka do not bear fruit.
