The signing of Iker Muniain for San Lorenzo continues to spark huge interest in Argentine football. Lionel Scaloni himself, current Albiceleste coach, had to respond yesterday in a press conference to a question related to the former Athletic captain and his arrival at the Barça club.
“I don’t know whether to surprise with his signing, but Muniain is a player who is still good, he is current, he can give a lot to San Lorenzo,” said Scaloni.
The coach of the current world champion team also emphasized that “in the years he played in Spain he was always a different player. From what I understand, he is passionate about Argentine football. I hope it goes well so that it opens the door for other kids who want to come, so that not only do we go there but they come here too. It is good for him to do well and for him to have a good image of our football at the moment, thank you for coming to our football because it is still valid.
Muniain, awaiting his official presentation today as a San Lorenzo player, clarified in a statement at the end of his first solo training session in Boedo that “I came here to work, to find my best level and version. Finding that level, helping my teammates in any way I can. Both on the field and in the locker room. The goal is always to win -enjoy the fans. “That’s the way, to prepare to win.”
