Ahead of their visit to Girona, Diego Martínez stated that they will be up against a "Champions League-level team with solid foundations, making it a very difficult match."
Here are some of his key statements:
"We have had to manage some players' training sessions individually, which has been a regular practice since we arrived."
"Stefan is a young player, and the sporting director already wanted to bring him in last summer. He is here to help us and create internal competition. He is young, ambitious, and complements the players we already have, which I think is very important."
"Essugo's suspension is tough for the team, and he feels it the most. We need to manage those situations emotionally better. Regardless of the suspension, we have to keep moving forward and try to avoid similar mistakes."
"We need to give Pelmard more training time and opportunities to integrate with the team. He can perform well in multiple positions, and that versatility is why he is here."
"We need to sign players who can play in different positions. I appreciate the work of the sporting director because it is a very challenging task."
