“This week we are going to sit down and everything will be clear”

How is the matter of your renewal? “Sometimes I can seem ambiguous, that I throw balls out, but I am a human person and I am wrong like everyone else. We are not machines. What we are machines is to work and to spend hours. We are all people, we have feelings and our personal situations and it has to stay inward. When it is closed there will be no problem or debate. As it happens in all the teams in Spain. It will be totally clear, because there is transparency with Manolo Gaspar and José María Muñoz. I was with Manolo yesterday. Let's hope to finish everything for one thing or another. Let's hope to finish everything for one thing or another. There are no strange situations. This has not become a soap opera because the times are not marked by anyone from outside ”.

Has your renovation become a soap opera? “They have not become a soap opera because the times are not marked by anyone from outside. First there is a professional issue. I perfectly understand the debate, but this happens in all the clubs in Spain. We almost have it, at a mathematical level it is not there and we have said it. It has become clear that when it closes mathematically there will be no debate. This week we are going to sit down and everything will be clear “

Situations. “The times have to be set by the club, and nobody can put any conditions on Malaga, and I have not put any conditions. That to be clear. The club is above, because Malaga is so great that nobody conditions it. You know my feelings as a person, every day I have a press conference and I can make a mistake when expressing myself, because whoever talks a lot is wrong. But there is a total transparency from me and from everyone, from my heart ”.

Praise your footballers. “I also have a group of players that I am making the most of it and I don't want them to be distracted. There are no conditions of anything, Malaga is the one who must put them. I have come across a group very hungry. I keep putting the same tension and everyone is wide-eyed. In 15 days we are going to play four games. There are players who are on the limit and playing infiltrating and with annoyances. People don't know ”.

Have you been consulted for future planning? “The club does not stop, here not for anyone, the sports management. It remains to certify everything. And there is fluid communication in all aspects. Football and Málaga do not stop and they always look forward thinking about planning ”.

Match preparation “It has been a busy week. On Friday we did an act of coexistence (in the CAR of Campillos). We have the loss of Luis Muñoz who this week noticed a discomfort in the quadriceps. Orlando, discomfort in the twin. With 50 points you cannot be worth it, but until it is mathematical you cannot celebrate anything. Oviedo is a team that has known how to compete but weighed down by COVID problems. He is a very intense rival, very similar to us. We want to be in that Top-10 ”.

Public in some stadiums. “It is a decision of the leaders. It is always good because they are taking steps forward but there may be inequality, because in some places the public enters and in others it does not. Either all or none.
