Manu Barreiro: “Lugo has very consistent signings”

After four and a half years at Ángel Carro, Manu Barreiro decided to change the appearance after consumption the relegation of Deportivo Lugo to the First Federation. The new striker of Compostela, presented this Friday, comments that “a lot of things happened in Lugo in these five seasons, but almost always everything went well.” However, Relationships wear out over time and we believe that it was best for both parties to end it right now.. The decision was made by both parties together, but I think that on a personal and professional level, playing for Lugo was a great experience.”

He also admits that it was his worst season in many aspects: «I was the captain of the team and I had to deal with many things inside and outside the dressing room. It was a very difficult year mentallybut I always like to stay positive. I think I made the right decision. I think there is only one player with a current contract and I don’t even know if he will continue. The environment was very polluted and I think it is best for the club to start from scratch. We are all very mentally punished. We started badly and it is always very difficult to change the dynamics. It was the worst or one of the worst seasons in my sports career».

He understands that signing Lugo was “great luck”. Remember that “we’ve always had a very good and very healthy locker room. In this last season, there was a lot of youth, and less experience, and it didn’t work from the beginning. We were relegated with two months left in the competition, even though it’s been almost four months since we lost the category. Of course it was very difficult every day. We handled it as best we could and it’s clear that we didn’t have the quality of previous years. This is easy to understand if we see that at the end we are twenty points away from permanence. We had several key games where we didn’t hit the target or didn’t live up to it.

As for the future of the albivermella entity, Manu Barreiro understands it It will be a “candidate for promotion in the First Federationbut it will surely cost you. He makes very consistent signings, he signs very well and he makes a good group.
