During the meeting, they expressed strong interest in securing the services of, according to Jijantes, three youngsters: Héctor Fort (19), Dani Rodríguez (20) and Jan Virgili (19).
Although none of them are indispensable to coach Hansi Flick, their arrival at the island club seems complicated.
The first two are considering offers from other teams, while the third, after his brilliant performance in the U20 Intercontinental Cup , hasn't ruled out pursuing his chances of breaking into the first team.
In all three cases, the Vermillions are looking to secure a loan.
