In the eve of their big match against Real Madrid, Valencia's coach Nuno Espiritu Santo revealed his recent signing Enzo Perez will likely be playing his first game with Los Naranjeros. The Portuguese boss even went further on, stating Perez was most likely making a start against La Liga's number one team. Perez made the 18-men squad Nuno summoned for their first match of 2015.
"He gives depth to our team. He will likely play, but we have not decided yet if he will start, although there's a good possibility to it. He is a player that's ready, in shape and that is really great handling the ball. He will provide versatility to our team," the Portuguese coach said.
Coach Nuno referred to Real Madrid as one of the greatest teams in history, citing their recent accomplishments. Furthermore, he referred to his co-national Cristiano Ronaldo, as the best player to have lived.
"Being part of a great club such as Valencia, you must not have problems accepting they have made magnificent things. We will pay our respects to a great team, and then we will face them with the intention of winning. We have to be aware of every threat they pose, and we have to keep an eye on Cristiano Ronaldo, who is the best player in history. He is just a perfect machine," Nuno added.
Valencia will also have available Alvaro Negredo and Paco Alcacer with the intention of denying Real Madrid their 23rd consecutive win in official matches.
