Loren, object of desire of UD Las Palmas and CD Tenerife. The 29-year-old Real Betis Balompié striker from Marbella, with a contract until June 2024 with the Heliópolis club, is one of the great temptations of the silver market. The goal that the striker achieved in the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup in Arabia has triggered his cachet. Represented by the agency You First – the same agency owned by Álvaro Valles, Kaptoum or Florin Andone–, has rejected a proposal from Cádiz. Next to the interest of the yellow square, as well as the chicharrero, is the Granada.
From the Seville capital, from the Estadio Deportivo newspaper, they analyze the last hour of the Loren case. ‘The striker’s priority is to continue at Betis, which has two free licenses –pending Camarasa’s registration–’. Manuel Pellegrini’s team longs for the signing of Tenerife striker Ayoze Pérez (Leicester City), but Quique Setién’s Villarreal has also slipped into the operation. The degree of uncertainty in Benito Villamarín is such that the sale of Willian José in this final stretch of the market is not ruled out, as is the communication of an offer for Borja Iglesias. Everything is possible.
With so many open fronts, Loren’s situation goes to the background and will be resolved on the horn – the market closes next Tuesday and at 11:00 p.m. From the Gran Canaria entity they are patient and argue that Loren prioritizes wearing yellow, given the good position in the table.
With the operation of Benito Ramírez, the club from Gran Canaria already has a free license and can register their long-awaited attacker, Let the competition kick off with Sandro Ramírez, Florin Andone and top scorer Marc Cardona – who has seven goals in 24 duels.
The market will be agitated in the next few hours and the urgency of Betis plays a determining role. The interest of CD Tenerife would not have convinced Loren, who has received notable expressions of affection from the Heliodoro –with the appearance of a banner–. From the Gran Canaria entity, they emphasize that they handle different alternatives such as offering Pimienta a gentleman team for the conquest of direct promotion.
Mata and the Deivid connection
As for Jaime Mata, the 34-year-old striker from Madrid for Getafe CF hasn’t played in the top flight since October 24. He has asked the leaders of the azulón club to leave, but the president Ángel Torres demands a succulent amount for the assignment. UD has shown great interest in reinforcing itself with the tall striker, who coincided with Deivid, adviser to the sports management, in the ranks of Real Valladolid. He maintains a close relationship with the former Las Palmas player.
From Mata’s representation agency, Viasport, they postpone any scenario until next Monday. “You have to wait and the list of Second Division clubs is important. In this business, friendship does not count; count the money. The Canarian club is a benchmark”, they highlight.
Asier Villalibre (Athletic Club de Bilbao) traveled on loan to Deportivo Alavés in a luxury acquisition for Segunda. In addition, SD Eibar acquired Juan Carlos Arana –formerly of Villarreal CF–. Granada, beyond bidding for Loren, also sighs for Weissman, dIsraeli striker for Real Valladolid.
The Nasrid club offers 3.5 million to take over the striker’s services – that amount includes the extra in the case of winning promotion. The timer does not stop. The clock of anguish and wit. Strengthen yourself without losing your cool. The second position of the UD is the best guarantee. A promotion triggers income. With Mata ‘prisoner’ of the Geta, his wish is to attend a friend’s call. Loren thinks it over. The ticking of the clock is the implacable judge.
