The Mollerussa squad called a press conference on Tuesday where they unanimously denounced the dangerous situation the players and coaching staff are in after three months without pay. In a statement read by two of the captains, Xavi Puiggròs ‘Putxi’ and Jofre Graells, they explained: “For many months we have tried to leave the economic aspect in the background to focus on sports and achieve historic continuity. We competed despite the delays in payments. Most of us still have to collect 3 monthly payments, per diems, tickets and the amount of mutual benefit that each of us pays during that time.”
Mollerussa now has a new president, Josep Gené, who does not give peace of mind: “Only the new president is not in the previous board, so the excuse that the previous ones were so bad is not valid for us, because they are the same.”
The captains also warned that only when this press conference was announced “they contacted us and called us for an information meeting this Wednesday (7 pm).” They also complained about the “silence and lack of information, to the point of knowing from third parties that the club supposedly has a new sports director who is talking to future players and coaches, a fact that is given we interpret as a lack of respect for professionalism.” which we maintain.” Finally, they praised coach Jordi Cortés: “Thank you for what he did for us on and off the field. He made us believe and we wouldn’t have achieved this without Jordi.”
