Levante UD Discussion

[Storts]

We are Granotas. We are THE FROGS.

Already looking up flights to Valencia for next season - will be waiting for the fixtures this week

WE BEAT THE UNBEATABLES. THE CHAMPIONS WERE VANQUISHED. 

Can't wait for next season to consolidate ourselves back where we belong.

If it wasn't enough to beat us 4-3 in a pre season friendly, Bournemouth won't give up their pursuit of Jefferson Lerma. After a good World Cup it's no surprise we are at risk of losing him, but if we do it must be for £30 million+ so that we can reinvest it in the squad. He's our best player and has a release clause of €60 million having just signed a new deal before the world cup so need to sell cheaply at all. We have to rinse an English club for every penny - their spending is ridiculous 

We've got a relatively tricky start to the season - away to Betis, home to Celta Vigo and away to Valencia in our first three, but It's going to be important to assert our authority at home again, so that Celta Vigo game is a big one for me. 

We are away at Feyenoord again this lunchtime so hopefully will give a better indication of where the squad is currently.

If anyone wants to watch us we're currently 2-0 down to Utrecht after losing to Feyenoord at the weekend

2-2! Great second half performance from the lads

We signed Sanjin Prcic from Rennes this week - looks to be a good signing, and should slot into the attacking midfielder rotation.

Still no movement on Jefferson Lerma. Bournemouth keep trying but have yet to meet our asking price. I think we'd be crazy to let him go, he's our best player imo, but  money talks and I wouldn't be surprised if he did want to test himself in the Premier League on Premier League Wages.

 

Levante UD has enthusiastically agreed to welcome Sanjin Prcic into the Levante UD entity for at least the next three seasons. The midfielder (20/November/1993, Belfort, France) comes to the Orriols’ club after completing his commitment with Stade Rennais FC of France.

Sanjin Prcic is a product of the FC Souchaux youth academy, France; in 2014 he joined Stade Rennais F.C., and during the 2015/2016 season, he defended the colors of Torino F.C. and A.C. Perugia Calcio while playing on loan. But, for the past two seasons, he has once again defended the colors of Stade Rennais F.C. He has played a total of 90 matches in Ligue 1 (61 with the Rennes and 29 with the Souchaux).

The new Levante attacking midfielder has played internationally while playing for the national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina at tiers U17, U19, U21 and debuted with the top tier national team in 2014.

Sanjin Prcic has passed the medical examination and will join the Levante team entourage at Ermelo. Granota strong!

 

 

Here are the highlights from yesterday's friendly btw - Jason Remeseiro's goal is a beaut

So Mixed bag to start the year.

Was a brilliant win on the opening day although 0-3 flattered us a lot because it was smash and grab and we could have quite easily lost the game.

Last night was tough to take. A moment of magic from Sisto for the first goal, and then a lovely chipped through ball for the second from the same player left us with too much to do, so that was tough to take. We did have our chances though - so creativity wasn't a problem, but we can't afford to lose too many at home.

Got a big game against Valencia at the weekend, which will be tricky, and I had written off, but after losing to Celta I think we need to at least take a point from it. Can't afford to lose our first two home games and set the precedent for the season ahead. The boys should be up for it though - expect it to be rocking.

Are you related to Levante somehow? Like do you live there now or something?
