Negueroles said, "Sorloth has had exemplary behaviour with Villarreal. He never forced his exit. He has had very good gestures with the club.

"It was a quick negotiation with Atlético, easy.

"We gave in on some things and they contributed a lot in others, so the operation in the end is good. It was a little traumatic at the beginning because it was not easy to replace him, but we did it with a forward who gives security like Ayoze and with a young bet like Barry , in whom the club and the coaching staff are very convinced that he will give a lot."
