New “hit” by agent Pineda: “Last year he turned down Nottingham, he wants to go back to Mexico for family reasons”

He continues to do his best and push his agent’s situations Orbelin Pineda, in order for his client to return to Mexico. In his new statements, Mario Villarreal reiterated his client’s desire to leave AEK and to return to his homeland stressing that the reasons are family and not financial.

“Orbelin made a huge effort in the last two years to be at AEK. He rejected offers of millions of dollars from Nottingham Forest to join AEK. He didn’t think about the money. The world has a short memory and does not remember. But we remember and respect everyone“, he emphasized to Mexico’s FOX Sports and added:

“Orbelin did not ask to go free. He asked for a transfer, with transparency and humility. How many players do this? When you’re a pro and keep training with a smile, you have to appreciate some things. Who sets the transfer prices? The market itself. If you look, you’ll see how Mexican teams have paid good money in recent years to bring home-grown players back. This is the reality, when you don’t accept it then there are other things behind. Thinking absurd amounts is about absurd people, but I’m sure the owner of AEK has common sense“, he continued.

“Players are people, not someone’s property. It’s not cars or apartments, it’s people with feelings. Orbelin expressed a desire to return to Mexico for family reasons. It is true that if this happens he will make more than in Greece because that is how the Mexican market is. I repeat that he has turned down bigger offers since he came to Europe. We have to keep this in mind“, he underlined.

Then he got into trouble with the Greek media: “I hear them say in the Greek media that the whole matter is instigated by his representative to make money and that I am blackmailing AEK. Have they wondered who is promoting what they say in their articles? On what basis and what data are they trying to form opinions. On what basis do they influence opinions and encourage their readers to send threatening messages and bully the Orbelin family? I have been in Athens for three weeks and it is impressive that no journalist has called me to ask me if what is being written is true. Isn’t it strange? They prefer to write rumors“, he said.

Finally, he pointed out that “… the new owner of AEK is making a big effort to make his team even more competitive. They already had a high level squad and have strengthened further to win the league and advance to the Conference League, but Orbelin wants to return to Mexico».
