As usualMatthew German, director of football, spoke to Movistar LaLiga just before the match against Mallorca started. Alemany did not reveal anything relevant about the renewals of Gavi and Dembélé. He also denied a meeting this week with Jorge Mendes and avoided talking about Lewandowski.
In summary, this is what he said of the three cases. About Gavi and Dembele: “Both of them have shown their willingness to continue. We have limits and we have to be strict on the salary issue. Everyone knows how our fair-play is. We have to adapt to reality and that is sometimes not easy” . From the meeting with the company Gestifute de Mendes: “We don’t talk about meetings, nor do I like to narrate negotiation processes. The only thing I can say is that this meeting did not take place.” And about Lewandowski: “We don’t talk about players with a contract. If there is ever interest in a player, we talk directly with the club.”
