It is not good to experience such situations for Spanish football,” he said. at the microphone of the Movistar channel, before his team’s defeat against Barça in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup (2-0), in Saudi Arabia.
“We are experiencing something incredible”
Uriarte spoke a handful of minutes after the decision of the Spanish Higher Sports Council to authorize Barça to reinstate Dani Olmo and Pau Victor to its squad. This provisional measure “suspends the cancellation of the sports licenses” of the two players and also maintains their validity until the outcome of the dispute.
-In other words, Dani Olmo and Pau Victor will be able to return to the field this Sunday for the final of the Spanish Super Cup, against Real Madrid or Mallorca. An aberration, therefore, for Jon Uriarte.
“We are on the eighth day of the new year and we are experiencing something incredible,” he quipped, provoking the ire of the Barcelona camp. Sports director of the Blaugrana club, Deco responded to him in the evening.
