The president of Sevilla was proving to be very belligerent on this topic, ... and one of the agreements was that he wouldn't oppose this decision if we loaned Saviola.

Samuel is not for sale, not even for all the money in the world.

We are very satisfied with the agreement.

The offer Barcelona made for him was ridiculous.

For us, we have no problem with signing a player who can't play with Madrid. It all depends how much the player wants to play for Barcelona. We'd like him to end up playing for us.

We have to work to try and win the league as soon as possible and concentrate on the Champions League. We want to reach the final in Paris and win it.

I continue thinking that Messi will end up playing before this month finishes. I have confidence that it will happen.

Racing was very ordered until we opened the scoring.

The decision by the CSD I understand will be in the week that comes and, despite of everything, I have confidence in which Messi will play very soon.
