Valencia sports chief Miguel Angel Corona says he won't be forced out.

It's been suggested Corona could be pushed out after a disappointing summer market.

But he says: "I am a professional who humbly gives it my all to work at this club. I am proud to work in this club and I come in every morning with tremendous desire. I am giving up many things in my life to be here and I try to play my role as best as possible.

"We had to reduce our costs due to the club's financial situation; it was not just a matter of Financial Fair Play.

"We have tried, within our financial difficulties, to make a balanced squad. Everyone, not only coaches, but also the sporting management and the fans, would love to have the deepest roster, but as the president has already expressed, we had a delicate economic situation, costs had to be reduced and we tried to balance the squad with our limitations. We lack depth in some positions, it is true, but we do not lack the ability to compete."
