The UD Las Palmas coach came at a press conference where he warned that Ibiza "will fight until the end to get out of there, it will be a very difficult game".

There are no reactions yet. Be the first!

Garca Pimienta showed up in the press room before to the team's travel to Ibiza. Regarding the opponent, the coach stated that "Ibiza has an experienced coach, they worked hard not to lose the last game, and they will fight to the finish to get out of there. They are making a lot of signings in order to change the situation. They have a fairly similar to the previous season". 

In terms of new acquisitions, the coach stated that "The midfield is one of the places that should be strengthened. I am a coach who prefers that one of his players play in an aggressive position; a player will arrive if he matches that profile".

"Joel had a very successful season in the base team and played in the Cup; here, he will only get a few minutes and it would be unfair to him" the coach stated.

When speaking of the game played the week before, Garca Pimienta said, "We did many things well, but we lacked ambition to reach the area more and when a game is not closed, if the rival scores, they get into the match," adding, "We have corrected situations, and we will have to be 100% against Ibiza to win."

"With Jonathan Viera, we'll proceed slowly; he played really well against Racing, but I'm not sure he's ready to play 90 minutes." He also stated, "Vitolo will not be there, and Marvin is training well; we will see whether he is called up."

"We are overjoyed for Kirian; he has been out of work for a long time and will need time to get ready. "There will be no pressure on him," stated the coach, who concluded his presentation by saying, "a squad that aspires to accomplish significant things has the duty to grow used to winning." ".
