Carlos Carvalhal is yet to win in the Spanish league in charge of Celta. The coach acknowledged that the situation is complicated, but rejected the idea that this Friday’s match against Elche is life or death, arguing that this doesn’t exist in football.
“We are in a marathon. In a competition like this one cannot speak of a final in the first round of the championship. After the match there will be life for Elche and Celta. In football we don’t have life and death, this is in Ukraine and in Russia. It will be a difficult game, with many battles,” said the coach at the press conference.
The news appeared that Celta could not invest in the winter transfer market, but Carlos Carvalhal guaranteed: «It’s not like that. We have opportunities to hire. It is in the hands of Luís Campos and I trust him a lot. He is working in that direction. Now I have full confidence in the players I have and there is no revolution in player departures and arrivals.”
Celta occupy the 17th position and will play against Elche, who are the 20th and last placed.
