Transfer market matters

Up until now, Eusebio has shied away from questions about his new contract and with the team clocking their best figures since they ended as runners-up, the club is keen to avoid any distractions with La Real keen to return to Europe next season. Talks have been on the back burner while Eusebio has been handling issues relating to the transfer market (the departures of Héctor and Rubén Pardo on loan) but discussions are now due to intensify now the winter window has closed. Eusebio's intention is to continue for a long time in San Sebastián and consolidate La Real's ongoing sporting project. In that sense, both coach and club are 100% in agreement. There is no doubt that Eusebio has managed to improve the group of players he is managing and now the results are finally following suit.
