Domingo Catoira, Spanish sports directorl, Friday’s balance has been passed in the parakeet market after a sharp close at midnight. The soap opera Raúl de Tomás monopolized most of his appearance, how could it not be. Catoira revealed that RDT was “affected” and personally asked him “that he wants to leave and we are listening to Rayo’s offer for personal reasons.” He hopes that everything will return to normal soon and that everything “depends on his predisposition. No one is higher than the Spanish, no one is higher in the collective. Anyone who is ready to board the boat, incredible and anyone who is not, won’t have room. .”
– Had to reach the end of the market with a feeling of disappointment?
“It’s not true that there are pending RDT signings. Another thing is that if the Raúl thing is done, you can make more purchases or not. A consensual planning was made with the technician. On the last day we prioritized those need and the quality in number. Through Martin the decision was made to tie him to the rest that we have. There are two situations that are disintegrating, independent of Raúl, one is the case of the center-back who has fallen because changed by his club the conditions Twice. We looked at the market, but either we did not come or the players did not consider that they had the level, we preferred to give the option to Simo”.
What happened to RDT?
“There was a predisposition on the part of Raúl to leave the club but no offer came. Yesterday he asked us to listen to Rayo’s offer. But the club cannot accept everything because of the haste and the need of the player. The end of the operation is not carried out because there is no closed agreement. It is not true that the documentation did not arrive”
– If it is not sold, how to make a revolution?
“We wanted to make a revolution and we carried it because we thought it is needed, but we didn’t need a sale. Everything is on schedule. Dissatisfaction with yesterday, of course I have. But I think something good is being done. . If now I know something is wrong, it is for not giving the necessary wicker to the coach, but regardless of the sales. Now I am optimistic and we must try to protect that dressing room.”
– He fought hard for a center back
“That’s one of the positions we’re looking to strengthen. We want a level player with a hierarchy. There are possibilities to sign but why not bet on Simo? If we can bring something to improve, well, if not, bet on what’s there is”
– Diego Martinez, how is he?
“One of the reasons why we signed Diego was to bring everything to a high level of demand. Tomorrow Diego will pass because he is a competitive animal and he will be the first to achieve everything”.
– How is Raúl de Tomás today?
“I spoke to Raúl this morning and he is affected. It is not the best day for him, on the one hand there is the person and then the professional and let’s see how it goes. He is an asset to the club. Yesterday he asked us to listen to that offer, the only one that came. We did it and at the moment it is not the right one, it is not accepted”
– How did you think that the Zarra Prize had no offers to leave?
“It is very complicated to explain. It has become a complex market, our League is one of the leagues with the least spent in the big leagues. In addition, the limit of fair play is many conditions. In the forward position, there is not much rotation in Europe . I can’t give an explanation, there are many influencing factors”
– What message are you giving the fans right now?
“Confidence. If there’s any doubt, let’s stick with what the team saw today, the sensations are better than the result. Heart parakeets will not give up. Help us and keep giving us confidence”
– Is it thought that RDT could go to another League in a market that is still open?
“There are alternative markets. We have not raised anything with the player after a difficult day. Now let him recover from his discomfort with the quotes and we will review it”
– Diego asked for 4 or 5 signings, what do you note on the balance sheet?
“They are part of the request and what we worked for, I feel a certain personal dissatisfaction in not giving it, in not completing the puzzle and it did not provide stability.”
– In the end, RDT left for less than 20 million when its clause was 70
MAO: “A sale for 70 is good but there is no sale or offer. There is no agreement because the offer is not enough. You have to be realistic. The purpose of a possible sale of Raúl is not economic”
– The most important player wants to leave and forced his departure, what do you think is behind it?
“It is a question for the player. I talked to him, he is a Spanish player and our idea is to help him and have a good predisposition for him to come back”
– Bad environment if you are not playing RDT
“The first thing he has to do is return to training, return to normality. There has been no talk of any player leaving. No one is higher than the Spaniard, no one is higher in the collective. Anyone who is ready to get on the boat, it’s incredible -belief and what is not, has no place”.
– Obscurantism in transfers
“We have always worked with the objective of being able to register the players that we have been signed. If we hadn’t done that, this would have been the big failure of the market. The departures helped to increase the salary margin”
– What did the RDT tell you to justify wanting to leave?
“Raúl tells me that he has to leave and that he wants to go to Rayo, for a personal reason. He conveyed to me his interest that he wants to leave the Espanyol”
