José Bordalás Prepares for Celta de Vigo Clash

omidbasir- José Bordalás held a press conference on Friday to discuss the upcoming match against Celta de Vigo at the Coliseum. He evaluated the team’s current situation, the integration of new signings, and the potential for further player acquisitions, particularly in light of Yvan Neyou’s possible departure.

**Injuries:** “There are positive updates as the players are generally in good condition. While some may not be ready for this match, Abqar has rejoined training with the group. We are pleased to see key players returning after their absences. I sense a high level of energy and commitment within the team. We are eager for Sunday’s match and aim to bring joy to our supporters.”

**Late Goals:** “We have thoroughly analyzed and discussed this issue. We recognize the need to correct our mistakes, as we have been caught off guard in the final moments of several matches. While this is part of football, we cannot afford such lapses, especially given our current scoring challenges. It is crucial to learn from these failures, and the team is determined to ensure it does not happen again.”

**Celta’s European Engagement:** “I don’t believe this will have any impact at all. Celta boasts a large squad and has significantly improved in recent seasons, assembling a team capable of competing for European spots. This match will be extremely challenging, as is the case with every encounter in our league. We cannot assume that fatigue will affect them.”

**Focus on the Next Match:** “I completely agree. Our focus is solely on the immediate task at hand. What has happened in the past or what may happen in the future is irrelevant. We must concentrate entirely on the match this Sunday.”

**New Signings:** “They are arriving with great enthusiasm and are providing much-needed energy to the group. These players are eager to contribute to their teammates and the team. While they may lack competitive rhythm due to limited playing time this season, their work ethic and attitude have been very beneficial for us.”

**Satisfaction with the Transfer Market:** “The club faces certain limitations, and the sports management has done an exceptional job given our financial constraints. They have brought in players they believe will be the most beneficial for us. We remain open to any opportunities that may arise before the transfer window closes that align with the team’s needs and our financial reality.”

**Abdel Abqar:** “As I mentioned, it is encouraging that Abqar is training with the team, but we do not want to rush his return, as he has suffered several muscle injuries, and we must proceed with caution. Regarding N’Diaye, we are evaluating his potential departure. He has not had much playing time this season, and we understand his desire to play. We will seek the best outcome for both the player and the club.”

**Outlook:** “There will certainly be challenges ahead for everyone, without a doubt. The current league dynamics, the strength of the teams, and the overall competitiveness are apparent. Just a few weeks ago, we were in the mid-table, and prior to our game in Girona, we were in the relegation zone. The remainder of the season will be tough, but the team ended the last match on a positive note. That is the approach we need: to compete as we did in such a difficult venue.”

**New Signings in the Starting Lineup:** “As I’ve mentioned, they are injecting a lot of energy into the team. Time and performance will determine if their integration has been successful, but I see their eagerness. If they played in the last match despite limited training, with more sessions together, they have substantial chances to feature again.”
