The green-and-white midfielder prefers to focus on his team's performance rather than looking at the actions of rivals in the fight for survival. The player has been a starter in all Elche matches, except for the visit to Ciutat de València, which he missed due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
After 31 matches, Elche is in relegation spots. Despite the poor position, the team is one victory away from climbing to thirteenth place. Therefore, ahead of the next match between the green-and-white team and Atlético de Madrid, the player only wants to focus on the duel.
“"We have to go for the match because everything is very tight and we have to add points. Today's training session was very competitive. The team is training very well. We have to focus on ourselves. Throughout the year we have been strong. We would have liked it as soon as possible because after winning you always want more."
Elche arrives at matchday 32 after securing two consecutive home victories. These come after a quarter without a win. For this reason, the player wanted to thank the green-and-white fans for their unconditional support.
“"I am very happy that people have been with us despite the bad dynamics. Both the team and I are very focused on what remains. We have to be prepared for everything and I think we are. It will be beautiful because we like this competitiveness. The fans are part of our success. The fact that we have such good numbers at home is because the fans are always with us, whether we are doing well or badly. For rivals, between our play and the pressure from the fans, it becomes an uphill battle. I want them to continue until the end. We, both in training and in matches, are giving everything we have and that will be the case until the last matchday."
For the upcoming matchdays, Elche will once again count on a full-back who has rejoined training with his teammates after more than three months. The midfielder stated that everyone is happy to have him back because he is a very beloved person in the locker room.
