For Romeu, "the responsibility of the current situation is of the club, but look for to range the crowbars with what LaLiga considers valid to give us fair play. The problem is that the judge (Thebes) is the same person that argues the interpretation". In accordance with the director, the club presionará to the end to attain inscribe to the players that attain fichar because they are convinced to have the reason. For now, the directive follows working in strengthening the 'crowbars' that allow fichar without committing madnesses.

With all this, am safe that these 800 million those that speak can happen to 2.000 in the future", puntualizó Romeu.

Besides, the vice-president explained that, regarding the discount salarial, the same will go headed to the players that win more. Likewise, there will be a technical criterion with players descartados by the trainer.
