The level he showed was very high, he is one of the best forwards in the category, for us the best, but we were very calm,” he stated.

“The market is the same in all markets. We have a very clear idea and that is what we are doing, the times are the times and the signatures will come when it is time. “We are making the needs that we understand that the squad has the coach’s approval and from there we will wait for the days to pass and see what happens,” he added.
