The Levante has a problem. The same as Barça. And time is ticking. The granota team does not have a margin in the fair play financial tax imposed by LaLiga and therefore cannot register the signings and players who were renewed at the end of last season. It is not something exclusive to the Orriols team, several La Liga clubs are waiting for the market to solve this problem, but for the club that Quico Catalán presides over, things are especially sensitive.
Signed Soldier, Franquesa and Brugui and renewed Morales, Miramón and Postigo, the club must move to the market urgently to free the cost of staff and salaries and thus be able to register the named players and that can play against Cádiz on August 14 in the league debut.
The problem is that the operations that the club had predicted in terms of sales, have not been given. The great offer for Bardhi has not arrived, nor is there anything serious for De Frutos or Campaña or Aitor (players who count but that an important offer would make them fly quickly).
Stagnant market
In addition, the players who do not count and who have been shown the exit door have not taken the step of leaving and that has generated a complicated situation. No accommodation has been found for them and several of them show little intention of leaving.
Sources of the granota club assure MARCA that it is something that does not take away their sleep and that they consider this type of situation normal with more than a month of market ahead. The pandemic has complicated things at the economic level of all clubs and it is usual to rush to the maximum to determine the templates, but either footballers are sold and fair play is released or Soldado and Morales will not be able to debut with Levante in a little more than two weeks.
Vukcevic, Vezo, Campaña, Coke, Hernani, Sergio León or Aitor himself are in the market to try to balance the accounts, but the offers do not arrive or are insufficient and the club lives in total uncertainty.
The main problem is for Paco López, not because he is going to run out of players like Soldado, Morales or Miramón during the season (that situation does not even arise), but it may be the case that they cannot play the first few days, since the market does not close until September 1, with several days already played. The coach works as if that was not going to happen, in fact the three have played the minutes that are planned.
