Santi Denia appeared in the Las Rozas Football City press room after announcing a new list of the Spanish Under-21 team for this November break where Spain will face England and Denmark in two matches friendly matches which will be played in our country.
“I send a message of support and solidarity to the victims of Letur, Cuenca and Valencia. Now is the time to be by his side. We have to face two very demanding matches. Our head and our heart are with these people,” the Spanish under-21 coach began by emphasizing.
“This is an exceptional situation. The Federation has spoken with your club. It was consensual. We spoke with them and the decision was made for them to come and train with us. They were convinced that they knew they had a difficulty,” said Santi Dénia.
“The coaches and players gave their point of view. We have to be close to all these people. If it was postponed, I would have understood it (championship day). “We all have this in mind,” said the La Mancha coach.
He also spoke about Cubarsí, apart from the two lists in Spain: “It is close to absolute, but we have it. It helped us during the Games. We continue to count on him. The more young players who go for the absolute, the better. But we are still counting on Pau.
“Samu is very young. We are delighted that he opts for the absolute. He is our top scorer in the standings. Luis asked us what it was like to live together. “Happy and delighted that he is going with Luis,” Denia commented about Samu Omorodion.
“I’m happy where I am. I am happy in the Federation. It’s a privilege to be a coach. The question of contracts, sometimes I don’t even look at the contract. We go there year after year. I have a contract until July 31 and I no longer attach importance to it,” he said of his situation within the Federation.
He also talked about the big new additions to his list: “I think Iker Bravo has played 35 games with the youth teams. He made his debut with the under-17 team. He took a step forward. He has already given it in the European under-19s where he was the best player of the tournament. He plays in Serie A and we know him. “He can make you score a point or a 10. He understands the game and he does it very well.”
On Bajcetic: “These are personal decisions. You’ve already seen other players leave with other teams. I talked to him all year. We are counting on him. “It will surely come in future calls, but there are scenarios that we cannot control.”
“We are delighted that Casadó proposed Luis. He is a player with a good profile who we like in the Federation and he has earned it through his work. “He’s a serious guy,” he said.
“The Fortea process has been advanced. We follow him. We have a good evaluation within the Federation,” he concluded.
