Not a reproach to Peter Lim or his management of Valencia.

Despite the fact that the team, one of LaLiga's ambassadors in recent years for its presence in European competitions, is flirting with relegation, for the president of the association football, Javier Tebas, Meriton's management is even better than that carried out by other former Valencian leaders in the past.

LaLiga president

Javier Tebas

assured that the Mestalla club has had presidents who have not reached the bottom of the Asian businessman's shoe and that they have been a disaster.

Tebas made these statements in an interview with FutbolJobs Magazine, a publication of the Spanish employment portal for soccer professionals Futboljobs.com.

Tebas remembers that when Lim arrived at the Mestalla there were "25,000 people clapping."

"This is a roller coaster because then it fell apart, then with

Mateo Alemany

and

Marcelino it

came back up and they again applauded Peter Lim, who was the best," he recalled.

Tebas insisted on not holding

foreign capital

responsible

for the ills of some clubs, pointing out that "I do not want to name the presidents of Valencia who have been a disaster."

"It has nothing to do with whether you are a foreigner or not. You have to think that Valencia has had a double pandemic: the Covid and the sports one," said Tebas, who remembers that the team's failure to qualify for the

Champions League

has supposed to lose "more than 120 million euros of income".

"Valencia has done what it had to do,

lower the price of the squad

, get players and compete," explained the manager, who asked "patience from Valencian society."

"To think that this year is a normal situation for Valencia is not to reflect well on what is happening. Peter Lim's relationship with Valencia is a roller coaster and all those who now crucify him applauded him a few years ago," he said.
