ANDhe TOthletic stays in Nuñez, who has a contract until 2025 and this winter market has negotiated his departure. The club has refused to continue talks with Valencia, the team that had been most interested in the player’s transfer, despite the fact that Marcelino had accepted his departure. The Asturian coach maintained the same pattern with respect to Nuñez that he has followed with Capa, who has also had the option of flying due to lack of minutes, or Peru, on loan at Amorebieta. “When we get to January we will see your concerns.” I will never look for my personal selfishness. If a footballer does not play, he is already having a bad time. If he wants to change his situation, we will talk about itWe will listen to each other honestly and make a final decision,” has repeated on more than one occasion. I was about to take it to the end with Nuñez, but the Athletic management has refused.
Marcelino trains and works with the footballers that the entity makes available to him. However, he is the first to consider that the moods cannot be the same in those who play as in those who see themselves with few opportunities to do so. Nuñez has participated in 7 games overall for the season, 5 as a starter and 2 coming off the bench. That yes, the coach will not make war for the decision. He was there because the footballer would leave if that was his intention, but once they have decided that he will stay, he will do so normally. “In me there is not going to be an obstacle for one or the other”; said the coach in reference to who has the last word: always the club.
Football player had the OK of the technician for the output, but the sports management has understood that it must continue. Marcelino made up his mind to continue until the end of the course with Iñigo Martínez, Vivian and Yeray, in addition to being able to turn to the subsidiary or even convert a footballer from the first team if necessary.
The Valencia has been the only LaLiga club willing to deal with compensation for the assignment, even to negotiate a purchase option. In other leagues the most interested club has been Benficawhich does not rule out returning to the fray with an offer that, a few days after the market closes, will reconsider the theory that Nuñez should finish the course in Lezama.
