Sanchez Flores Takes the Helm as New Coach

Last week, Sanchez Flores was appointed as the new head coach following Eduardo Coudet’s departure to River Plate.

Excitement About the New Role

Sanchez Flores expressed his enthusiasm, recalling fond memories of playing at Mendi, where the fan atmosphere was incredibly invigorating. He noted that now, the supporters are backing his team.

“The significant number of points we’ve accumulated this season at Mendi (Mendizorroza) has been largely due to our fans’ support, and I hope we can maintain that momentum,” he stated.

Preparing for Villarreal

When discussing the upcoming match against Villarreal, Sanchez Flores mentioned that they aren’t a team known for excessive passing. Instead, he pointed out that they are the quickest team in the league when it comes to counter-attacking.

“We must be vigilant regarding their transition from offense to defense and avoid letting them capitalize quickly because they have players capable of creating scoring opportunities with a single pass,” he concluded.
