Palma: “I am completely focused on Mars”

Completely focused on Aris and the effort he is making to get out to Europe, Luis Palma declares to Nova, clarifying what his priorities are despite what is being written about his future and the interest from other teams in acquiring him in the summer.

In detail what Luis Palma said to NOVA:

On how beneficial the Easter break was for Mars:

“We are fine! We have prepared well for the match against Volos, which is a very important match. We are focused on our goal, because this game is crucial”.

On how mentally prepared the team is for the match with Volos:



“We are aware of the importance of this match. We know we have to win, not only to get the three points, but to get away from Volos, who are also claiming the exit to Europe”.

On how Aris expects Volos to approach the game:



“Our opponents are playing at home. Therefore, we expect them to take to the pitch determined to win. We expect to face a strong team. Also, we expect that when we have the ball, they will be solid in their defense. Be that as it may, however, we must create opportunities and take advantage of them to score goals!”

For the Mars plan:



“The main thing is to impose our game. Against AEK and Olympiakos we showed some things. In the game against Volos we have to be even more focused and disciplined”.

On whether the first win in the playoffs is motivation:



“Absolutely! We have not won yet, although we have had good performances in previous games. We have to make fewer mistakes than in those games to succeed.”

For what is heard about his future:



“First of all, there is nothing. I am completely focused on my team. Nothing can distract me during this time. In my mind there is only the following, to win as many points as we can in the playoffs to reach the European exit. If a good proposal comes later, welcome!”
