Corona: “They are players who bring us competitiveness, enthusiasm, ambition and hunger”
The Valencia CF sporting director comments at the presentation of Rafa Mir and Stole Dimitrievski
Miguel Ángel Corona appeared before the media this Thursday, in the presentation of Rafa Mir and Stole Dimitrievski.
“First of all, welcome and thank you for your efforts to come here,” Corona began by saying.

“Very recently you were playing at this ground, with a shirt that was not ours, and we talked a lot about the desire you had to play here again, but with the Valencia CF shirt. That wish, that dream, has come true. For us, it is an immense pleasure to have you among us. Dimitrievski is a goalkeeper who has been proving his worth for many years in our league. In this last season he achieved 13 clean sheets. He comes to add experience, at 30 years old, to provide a lot of competitiveness in the position and in the team. It confirms that strategy, that coherence in the market, since we work with Baraja on very precise profiles of adaptability, LaLiga experience, players who speak the language, players who adapt quickly and those who can give us competitiveness and, above all, enthusiasm, desire and hunger, just like Rafa Mir.”

“Thank you also for your effort. We have also spoken many times about the desire you had to be here again ñ, with this shirt. It has taken us all a long time for this to happen, but all's well that ends well. You are here today and we are happy. As with Dimitrievski, what can we say about your hunger, desire, enthusiasm to be with us, to play in front of our fans again as you already did in Saint Petersburg? Rafa is a forward that you all know. He also gives us much more competitiveness in the position and, of course, in the team, and is at an optimal age of 27 years old. He continues the transfer idea that we have always proposed when we have spoken with Baraja about it.”
