“The focus is still on the transfer market. We still have many things to sort out and discuss,” he said during the press conference before the match against Aston Villa (August 24).

“It’s probably not like I’ll discuss a new contract after สมัคร ufabet the market closes.” 

“First of all, I am very happy with where I am, with the colleagues I work with every day, because it is very difficult to find unity, trust, faith and partnership in a vision.”

“It’s something I always refer to because I believe that the future holds incredible things for us. It’s going to be very exciting and I’m excited about it.”
