“We see who is the right person to implement this project”

Granada CEO Alfredo García Amado spoke to the media ahead of the presentation of the XV Spanish Bar Association Football Championship, a public appearance in which he briefly addressed some of the issues dominating the red and white news. Among them, the hiring of a technical specialist has not yet been specified. “We are seeing who is the most suitable person to carry out this project next season, and we are still in the decision-making stage,” he stressed, then insisted that the organization still has to “decide who will be the first, before signing the contract.” This.”

Answering questions from reporters present, Garcia Amado also gave some insight into the futures of Augusto Batalha, who is ending his loan without an option to buy, and Bruno Mendes, who could exercise a clause that would make him a free agent after relegation. . “The decision is theirs, not ours. Augusto is on loan, we are talking to him. He has offers from the first division and from interesting clubs – he is close to signing a contract with Rayo Vallecano – the situation is difficult, but we are ready. I am working on this with Bruno as well. He also has the opportunity to leave freely; he also came for Christmas with this situation,” he clarified. “We are negotiating with them, but we don’t have anything concrete that I can report. But logically we will soon get a decision from both of us,” added the Granada CEO.

García Amado noted that within the club there is “work going on every day” to build a new project, despite the fact that there has been no official announcement yet. “We have been working intensively, not since the day of relegation, but long before that,” said the red-and-white coach, emphasizing the intention to “put together the best possible squad to try to rise to the First Division again.” He subsequently announced that at next week’s regular shareholders’ meeting he hoped to “approval the usual and customary agenda items, accounts, management and nothing special.”

He then explained the measures taken by the club against the alleged reselling of season tickets for the match against Real Madrid, a situation that affected some members of the club who came to watch the match in Los Carmenes. “These are automatic internal procedures that we have, we are always looking for fraud not only in subscriptions, but also in terms of merchandising, we cooperate with the League and in audiovisual piracy issues. This is an automatic internal protocol through which we pass warnings, and there were many of them in the match against Real Madrid, we activated these internal protocols, which are almost automatic and were confirmed at the end of the season, so as not to harm any of these subscribers, who committed the alleged fraud. use of a subscription service. With which the season was supposed to end, to inform them of this situation, that is, in a file in which they would now be able to declare situations if an error occurred or such a situation arose. It’s not practical,” he explained.

Finally, he advocated for the Granada Femenino match against Levante to be moved to the Escribano Castilla. “Because the League and Federation have set a single timetable for 8:30 p.m., we have no artificial light in the Sports City until we complete the second phase of work this summer and can stage a match. So, we decided to go to Motril,” he noted, later adding that in this way the club could also expand “the image and Granadaism throughout the province.” “We encourage Motrileños to come and cheer for our girls who play a lot,” concluded He.
