Villarreals Roig Confirms Agreement with Marcelino on Delayed Contract Negotiations

Marcelino and Roig Postpone Contract Talks Until Champions League Status is Confirmed

Focus on the Present

With the current contract nearing its conclusion, Marcelino and Roig have mutually decided to hold off on discussions regarding a renewal until Villarreal’s Champions League qualification is determined.

Emphasis on Club Priorities

Marcelino stated, “We have indeed agreed to revisit the topic once the season wraps up. It is essential to highlight that both the coach and his team are entirely dedicated to the club’s priorities, prioritizing them over personal interests.”

He added, “The goal right now is not to engage in contract talks, but rather to focus solely on achieving our target. We will resume discussions after the conclusion of the season.”

A Committed Approach

“I am neither overly optimistic nor pessimistic at this stage; our immediate aim is to secure Champions League qualification for a second consecutive year. This reflects an admirable mindset from the coaching staff, emphasizing the club’s goals above their own.”
