For more than 340 million euros, a public fund from Saudi Arabia acquired Newcastle, with the aim of taking it to the top of English and European football. Faustino Asprilla spoke about this projectHis good time with the team between 1996 and 1997 made him a benchmark over the years and that is why the former player would like to return to join the coaching staff.
“If they gave me the opportunity to train the forwards I would be delighted to returnBecause I like the people of Newcastle and the way they have treated me, “he said in an interview with Sky Sports.
About the team’s general plan, Tino believes that it is best to go calmly, to sign players who really want to be part of the club and not only high-value figures, who have experience and who are looking for money.
“They have to choose the best players who want to go to Newcastle because they have the ambition to win the Champions League and other competitions.. I think that is essential for a team to enjoy success. Just because these owners have a lot of money does not mean that we are going to go out and sign any player. We want to form a competitive team with good players, but not all the good ones are the most expensive, “he assured.
So, The Colombian believes that it is best to continue to have the current coach, since before the news of the multimillion-dollar investment, the names of well-known coaches such as Mauricio Pochettino or Maximiliano Allegri have sounded.
“I think we have to keep Steve Bruce. He’s a good manager and coach, so I think he should stay.. He knows the club well. He has done very good things with limited resources in recent times, so I think he will be able to achieve more than he has done so far with better players at his disposal, “he said.
Asprilla is remembered in Newcastle for his treble in the Champions League against Barcelona, in total he scored 18 goals in 63 games and although he did not win any titles, he would like to return, because of the good treatment of the fans and because he would like to help in this new project.
“If I can contribute something to help achieve what I did not win on the field and I can do it off the field by training the forwards, it would be a pleasure. The Newcastle fans in England are fantastic. I was lucky to play around the world , from Brazil and Colombia to Chile, Mexico and Italy, “he concluded.
