This is the first public appearance of the Betic coach after the winter signing market was closed, in which Betis has been one of the protagonists after taking the services of Cucho Hernández for 13 million euros.
During this signing window, Betis has said goodbye to Assane Diao (Like) and of Rui Silva (Sporting of Portugal). Two sales that have been necessary to reinforce the greenish attack with the incorporations of the Colombian striker and Antony. However, the sports direction has been criticized for selling its titular goalkeeper and not having brought anyone to cover their hole. Regarding this matter, Pellegrini has been clear and has supported the club’s decision: «The goal is covered with Adrián and Vieites. It is a position in which more young players come in conditions, they come Guilherme and ManuGermán always competes, they are very important bets of the future ».
In addition, the Chilean has been resounding about the future of the Verdiblanca goal: «We did not have a need to cover the space it left Rui Silva And we’ll see who covers it and when it is covered ».
It is not a secret that Álvaro Valles He negotiated with Betis his signing, but the You Palmas He did not want to accept the offer. Since then, the goalkeeper has declared himself in rebellion and has not played a minute this season after being separated by the Canarian club. Since January, the player is free to negotiate his future, since he fulfills a contract in June and everything seems to indicate that he will end up wearing the Verdiblanca shirt.
This was also dropped by the sports director, Manu Fajardoduring the presentation of Cucho and Antony: «Vallés is very taste of sports direction. In summer a proposal was made that they declined and in the market we have worked hand in hand with the coach, so we went to the market to reinforce other positions beyond the goal. We work with the maximum illusion and the same respect. From the hand of our CEO, the market has already finished and we have Focus in the next market that can be given, hence we talk about future operations ».
