Possible Sports directors from the newspaper El Dia

Directly translated from El dia online

As it had been planned Miguel Concepción yesterday had meetings with some of the candidates who might occupy the position of sports director for the club. Before assisting at the Federation directors meeting, the CDT president had time to interview Juan José Lorenzo Molpeceres, who was sports director for Osasuna from 2003 to June this year, Pacheta and three others. The man from Valladolid, who is considered a disciple of Santiago Llorente, as well as Alfonso Serrano, is apparently in favored position. This is especially because of his youth and knowledge of the present day football market. That doesn't mean the job is his. Miguel Concepción doesn't want to make a mistake. Therefore he plans to take his time to consider the applicants. The president had a long list with dozens of names and during the day some including apparently -Pacheta, have been discounted.
Although up to now no one has been prepared to talk to those who have offered themselves for the position, the list is great. And it can't be discounted that the job will finally be offered to one of them. Someone who may be looking for work right now is Fernando Gómez Colomer, ex - Valencia and the man who helped José Luis Oltra at the beginning of his career. Who whilst he was sports director in Castellón, chose Oltra to be his trainer starting his career in the big time. Although he would be available he hasn't been considered by the club up to now. Another who has offered himself is Salva Iriarte, ex-player trainer and sports director in Real Sociedad and Roberto Olabe.

Also Antonio Pinilla appears in the long list of candidates. The ex-blue and white player was sports director for Nástic until 2009, but has been dropped, another name who could have interested the club is Miguel Ángel Ruiz, with whom, in spite rumors to the contrary hasn't been contacted. Finally there is Rafa Monfor. Although Tenerife would need to convince him to leave Udinese, whom he only joined over a month ago. Concepción returned last night to the Island. Juan Amador, the manager of the club who accompanied him at the meetings did so at mid day. Both will stay on the island whilst negotations are continuing to fins a new sports director.
