At 3:00 AM on August 24th, Villarreal will travel to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium to face Sevilla in the second round of La Liga. Ahead of the game, head coach Marcelino attended a press conference and responded to rumors surrounding the transfer of forward Samuel Chukwueze.
【Chukwueze’s future】
Marcelino: I can’t compare the situation of the team before I came, but we want to have the best squad possible. Besides Yeremy Pino, we have three players who play in the attacking part of the team. As for Chukwueze, it’s clear that the players who stay must always accept the team’s arrangements. If you have the ability to be a professional player, then that’s the player we want. If you’re not prepared, then it’s better to resolve things. Good teams are always made up of good players, that’s my understanding of the team, nothing is mandatory to stay.
It is reported that Lyon from Ligue 1 is interested in signing Villarreal forward Samuel Chukwueze, but the transfer process may not be completed in the summer window. According to French media outlet L’Equipe, the deal could be finalized in the winter window.
【Many changes have happened in the team】
Marcelino: When I took over the team, I knew the team was going to be restructured. After a lot of talks with the club, we started this process together. This adaptation takes time, but I don’t know how much it will affect the team’s performance. We will try to shorten the adaptation period, it’s impossible to do it in a few weeks, but we will try to shorten this time.
【The team’s goal】
Marcelino: The goal is to win every game and compete at the highest level. Like the first game against Atletico Madrid, and improve upon it, our ambition and level will be recognized by the fans, we have to work hard for it every week.
