The coach of Villarreal, Marcelino García Toralis very pleased with Eric Bailly’s return to the club, predicting that he will adapt quickly and that he will be a “valuable” player if they know how to “optimize their resources” and has not closed the door on doing any more additions to the winter market, although he said the decision was “an internal process.”
“The team has had some losses and we want a better performance. There are phases of the game where we need to improve. We are very far from the top zone, where we should be calm that we have nothing to move further from the bottom. As an optimist, which I am, it is very careful to put ourselves in the worst case scenario, which puts us in a situation where the resources are not the best if that situation happens,” he said in a press conference.
The coach recalled that “the market and the winter are always complicated” and that with only half of the season left “any merger must take into account the time to adapt to the league or the country”, something that influenced the arrival of Bailly, which is already under his leadership at Villarreal.
“Eric, in addition to being a good footballer, is a very good age, he is motivated, he knows the League, he will quickly get to know the coaching staff and his teammates so we think that the adaptation will be fast . We all know the qualities he has and we have to try to practice them and avoid injuries,” he said.
“He has exceptional conditions,” highlighted the coach who recalled the high transfer fee that Villarreal from United charged for him. “He came with the approval of everyone, it was a consensus between the sports management and the coaching staff. We think he is a very good age, time will tell us but we believe that if we can optimize his resources he will be able to be an important player” , he highlighted.
