Now the new players join with great enthusiasm and expectations. They understand the contributions the players have made to the club's growth over the past 15 years."

Regarding whether the team's lineup thickness can compete with Real Madrid and Barcelona

Whether there is a lack of a breakthrough hand

" Maybe, but we already have players with breakthrough ability like Almada, Baenna or Alvarez. In addition, there are many forwards such as Sollot, Griezmann or Laspadori who can provide different offensive options. With the transfer window closed, we will make the most of everyone's strengths. ”

About possible game to Miami

"There are always many things in life that are worrying, but in the end it is not It will happen. A year ago, we were worried about playing Barcelona in Miami, but it didn't actually happen. "

The possibility of Baena as a shadow forward

" He has performed well in the last few games and may start from this position. He can play right winger, left winger or shadow forward. I think he is more suitable for being a shadow forward or a winger in the middle. We will arrange the position according to his characteristics so that we can better serve the team. Laspadori just arrived and Sollot has not trained this week, so we intend to continue the previous friendly lineup. "
