The Sevilla-born player says the team feels “pretty comfortable. We’re training intensely, the pitch is in perfect condition, we work well in the gym, and little by little we’re getting on form for the start of the season,” said Genaro.

“The beginning of the season is looming and with the matches that we have left against different teams we’re preparing ourselves. We can’t wait to start the new season and give our all from the outset,” said the Malaguista defender.

In terms of the 10 new signings to the team, Genaro commented: “It feels like they’ve been here longer than 10 days. They’re doing well, the reception has been good, and they will bring us experience and maturity, which is always welcome.”

In addition, Genaro said “in the pre-season the matches can often be misleading, but they are good tests that allow teams to prepare. We’ll go out there, do our job and perform well,” he concluded.
