Press conference

Is our transfer business done for the summer?

We’ve signed five new players since the end of last season - so will there be any more?

Unai Emery was asked about our transfer business at his press conference on Thursday and here’s what he said:

on how many more players he would like to sign…

Normally, in my career the big clubs don’t close the [door] or the moment to sign a new player. Today, we are OK. Maybe we can bring in one if there’s a very good possibility for them to help us, but the club has done a great job of signing new players and I am happy.

on whether there’s a position he’s looking at strengthening…

We signed the players who we needed and only if one player is a big opportunity for us will we sign them. Normally, we are thinking about the young players, the possibility of them staying with us or going to play on loan at another team. We are also thinking about the players who were with us last year and whether we need them to stay with us. At the moment, I think the squad is complete. We will only sign another player if there is an opportunity to bring in that one player, or two players. We will only sign a player in the next month if he’s a big opportunity.

on Steven N’Zonzi…

I know him but we haven’t made a move for him.
