Baraja: "We want to dedicate the victory to the victims and those affected by the 'DANA'"
The coach previews the game against Real Betis
The new Valencia CF midfielder, Selim Amallah, spoke to the media this Wednesday after he was presented as a new loan arrival at the club.
His arrival at Valencia CF
I never hesitated about coming here. There were other offers, but ever since the club contacted me I was only focused on Valencia CF. We have always been in close contact. I knew there were other issues to sort out before I arrived, but now that I'm here I'm very happy.
His position on the field of play
I'm a midfielder and skillful with the ball, but I like to play high up the pitch and I will try to adapt as best as possible to help the team. My favorite position is as a number 10, but I can also play in the number 8 spot. One of my strengths is my versatility.
Players he looked up to from Valencia CF
I have always liked Aimar a lot. This year it has really impressed me that there is a very good group, especially in the midfield with players like Almeida and Javi Guerra.
Training under Baraja
The first session went very well. I have spoken a lot with Baraja; he is a Valencia CF legend and I am convinced that I am going to contribute a lot to the team.
The aim for the season
We haven't talked about this yet. I have only just arrived. We have to take things game-by- game and we will see how the season unfolds. On an individual level, my goal will be to stay here at the end of the season. I'm at a great club and I hope to do my best.
His shirt number
I have chosen to use the number 19. It is the number I have worn since I was in Belgium at Standard Liege.
The fans
The Valencia CF fans clearly love football. They are always there, in the good times and the bad. Last year was a tough season and they stood by the team. I hope to bring them a lot of joy.
