Andrés Rueda, recently elected president of Santos, is very critical of Benfica’s proposals to hire Lucas Veríssimo. “An insult,” he shoots.
“At the right moment we will sit down with the player and see what he wants. You have every right to want the best for your career, as long as you respect the position and the rights of the club, “he began by saying, in an interview with Radio Omega.
“These proposals presented by Benfica, which were rejected by our Fiscal Council, were, in my opinion, an insult to Santos. It is an insult to Santos to make an offer for a player and say he will pay for it in five or six years. It is wanting to take advantage of a situation that unfortunately the club exposed to the world, that we had a saucer in hand [n.d.r. alusão à débil situação financeira]. Dirty clothes are washed at home, ”stressed Rueda.
“We don’t have non-negotiable players. If there is interest in a club player, it is by sitting down and making the formal proposal. If it is good for the club and for the player, it is done, otherwise it is not done. The club can not negotiate with the dish in hand, otherwise we are always the losers in this story, “he stressed.
