‘We all know Mendilibar teams fight’

Miroslav Djukic respectively knows exactly what he and his Real Valladolid team are in for when they host Osasuna this weekend.

Week 29’s Sunday lunchtime game sees the Pamplona side travel out to the Jose Zorrilla.

Whilst Valladolid hold a seven point and four place advantage over Osasuna heading into the game, Djukic expects a tough test.

“We all know how Jose Luis Mendilibar’s teams have a lot of fight and that they fight well, we will have to be ready for it,” commented the Serbian today.

“They are very well crafted, very intense, with many variations on the game and with much focus on the penalty area.”

The Coach was also asked of speculation surrounding his future at the club.

“I am very happy here, growing and improving as a Coach and I hope to fulfil my contract, but for now I am focused on the final 10 games that we have and I am not going to think about any other stories.”
