Roig: “Pau Torres is not for sale, but there are negotiations”

Villarreal president Fernando Roig pointed out this Wednesday that Villarreal center-back Pau Torres is not for sale and until it is closed they never give operations as they did, although he admitted that there negotiations underway. Note that the yellow squad will soon be transferred to Aston Villa, who will pay between 35 and 40 million for the centre-back.

“The idea is as always to have a better team than last year. I think the CEO is doing a very good job in reaching agreements from three parties: a club that wants to buy, a player who wants to leave and an offer that satisfies us. The market situation is good and I am happy”, he said.

Roig made these statements during the presentation of the season ticket campaign for the Castellón club, where he emphasized that “the job of the CEO is to find an economic balance with sales, but not to lower the level of sports . It’s complicated, but the idea is to be sustainable and always have a good team”.

“There were sales, but the numbers considered do not correspond to that fact and we will not talk about the numbers. We are looking for economic balance, finish a good year like last year and face the next with peace of mind. We want to be a healthy club and this forces us, for four or five years, to buy and sell. We paid for Ramón Terrats and we invested in young players for the future for in academia”, he explained.

In addition, regarding Milan’s interest in Samu Chukwueze, Roig said that “if the interest is the same as that of Mateo Musacchio, where Mr. Galliani comes and says they have no money: “no soldi”, he said, and then we ate. go home”.

When asked if there will be more signings, Roig stated that “we are working to improve, but right now I don’t know, I don’t even talk about these things.”
