Villarreal are not keen on selling the striker, who managed 19 goals in 41 games in all competitions this season, and Fernando Roig Nogueroles has reiterated their stance when asked about the striker’s future.
“Well, people look for profiles with certain characteristics,” he said.
“In the end, it seems there’s a shortage of forwards, and now we’ve been selling our center forward for two years, and now it seems there’s interest.
“But for now, we have no confirmation, and we’re counting on Barry for next season. These aren’t real estate deals. What you’re selling here is a person with a strong will. When it comes to defending the club’s interests, you have to listen to their will, always listen. You don’t always reach an agreement, and sometimes you have to say no, but you always have to listen and negotiate.
“Yes, the player’s will is very important when it comes to any type of transfer, but hey, we’re relaxed. We love the player, and if he were to leave, it would have to be, if not for the release clause, something very close to it. If not, he won’t leave.”
