“The rift between the players and the technical staff was too great. The defeats have been accumulating, but above all the decision has also been due to the state of mind in the dressing room”, assured Marc Gasol this afternoon at the time of value the dismissal of Salva Camps as coach of the Basketball Girona. The club has three candidates to replace him and hopes to tie one in the next few hours to make his debut against Granada this Sunday in a real final after seven consecutive defeats. Among the names that have sounded are Fotis Katsikaris and Joan Peñarroya. In the event that there is still no agreement with the replacement of Camps, the league match of the weekend will be directed by Àlex Formento.

“The dismissal of Salva is painful. We are all jointly responsible for the situation. We want the team to react and return to the good dynamic. We have taken the decision convinced and hoping that the situation will improve”, explained the president of the Basketball Girona, which has also announced that it will announce its future as a player before the end of January, after having said in the summer that it was not yet clear whether it would retire or try to stay on the court. Gasol has admitted that “the players had become impervious to the coach’s corrections” and that in the face of this “a blow to the wheel” was necessary. “The results have an impact on the mood, and now the mood of the group is very low”, he stressed. The club does not rule out making changes to the squad with the arrival of reinforcements “but we will wait until there is a new coach to discuss it with him, if he thinks it necessary”.
