His stay Orbelin Pineda is a priority for her AEK ahead of the new season. The versatile Mexican midfielder had a huge contribution to winning the championship, is considered by many to be the MVP of the season, and the intention of the “yellow and black” could not be to continue their collaboration in the next even more demanding season.
THE Pineda’s agent, Mario Villarreal, was present at the fiesta for winning the championship, but also at the party that followed in a night club. AEK made sure to invite the representatives of all the players for the celebrations, but in particular in this particular case it had one more chance to continue the… pressing.
For a long time Pineda’s side have been informed of AEK’s desire to keep the player. The “yellow and black” thrown on the table by the extension of its lending from Delta with a not unrealistic purchase option, until the purchase of a significant percentage of its rights or even co-ownership with Vigo’s team.
It is recalled that Telta retains the rights of Pinedas until 2027 and the loan agreement with AEK had not included a purchase option, despite the efforts of the “yellow and black”. The president of the Spanish club, Carlos Mourinho, never lost faith in the player’s potential, even though the then manager, Eduardo Cute, did not give the Mexican the opportunities to show his worth.
It is Telta that will determine Pineda’s fate. The new coach, Carlos Carvalhal (he had worked at Asteras) is unknown if he will continue on the bench in the new season. Vigo’s side after five defeats in their last six La Liga games are beginning to worry about their survival, although they are still +5 above the relegation zone with four games remaining.
AEK is determined to do everything in her power to keep Pineda. An ally in this effort seems to be the 27-year-old ace, who he feels happy in the “Union” and in Greece, as does his family. The prospect of participating in the groups of the Champions League (or even the sure presence in the groups of a European competition) is an additional lure and perhaps another advantage of AEK in the contacts it will have with Telta. A good presence of Pineda in a European competition would further increase his price and this might make the Galicians much more flexible.
In any case, AEK wants to clear up the Pineda issue as soon as possible, since in the worst case scenario where his stay is not possible, it will be necessary to acquire a valuable player to cover the big gap.
