There are no reactions yet. Be the first!

The forward began with a heartfelt message of support for those affected by the recent storm, sending a strong embrace on behalf of the club.
Moleiro acknowledged the challenge of playing at Vallecas, knowing it will be a demanding match. The team will aim to keep a clean sheet and secure the victory.
On a personal note, he emphasized that he’s still working hard and feels fortunate to have scored 4 goals this season. His main focus, however, is lifting the team out of the relegation zone. "I'm convinced we’ll do it, whether it’s with my goals or those of my teammates." He also noted that he’s taken a step forward this year in helping the team and hopes to keep earning points for them.
Here are some of his key remarks:
"I’m still working just as I always have. I’ve been fortunate to score several goals, but the priority now is to get the team out of relegation, and I’m confident we’ll manage it."


"My contract renewal isn’t a topic right now. I’m only focused on what’s immediate, which is Friday’s match."
"Luis Carrión didn’t get us the wins, but Diego helped us secure that first victory, which gave us confidence. That win made the difference, though Luis’s work still deserves credit."


"Our goal is to be strong in both boxes, defensively and offensively. If we keep a clean sheet, it’ll be easier to earn points."
"The key to beating Rayo at their ground is confidence, being true to ourselves, and staying united. They’re strong at home, but we’re capable."


"We know the match against Atlético Madrid wasn’t our best. We’re focused on correcting that, being more decisive in attack. Atleti dominated us, and they were the better side, but now we need to improve so that doesn’t happen again."


"I wore the captain’s armband because there were no other captains on the field, and I’m very proud. This year, I feel more mature on the pitch. I’m calm and enjoying the game; I hope it stays that way. My only focus is to get us out of relegation."


"I think the matchday should have been postponed out of respect for those affected. I don’t have the authority to make that call, but I would’ve liked to be with my family, helping in this difficult situation if it had happened to us. Out of respect for our Valencia teammates, the matchday should have been postponed."
