Girona manager declares desire to sign two Barcelona players - Blaugrana open to negotiations
Girona manager Michel Sanchez has expressed confidence that they can maintain the core of players that got them to the Champions League next season, after declaring that Troyes loanee Savio Moreira is the ‘best player he’s ever had’. The 19-year-old Brazilian has been a revelation this season, but by all accounts will be signed by Manchester City in the summer, a third side in the City Football Group.
On Saturday evening Girona achieved an historic feat, qualifying for the Champions League for the first time, in just their fourth season in Spain’s top division. With a number of performing of loanees, including Savinho, and a number of players looking like prime targets for top sides, Michel told RAC1, via Sport, that he felt Viktor Tsygankov and Artem Dovbyk would remain next season.
“I think the Ukrainians will [stay], because they have a contract. And hopefully Savinho… He is the best player I have ever had. I don’t know if he is a Troyes or Manchester City player, but I know he is not our player. We’ll discuss it later.”
