I might not be able to guarantee him that, but I must emphasise he trains well, he is very professional, and if he stays, that is no problem. I have nothing against him staying, but it is a discussion the club will need to have with him about, if it is better for him to be the first name on the team sheet somewhere else, which I can’t guarantee him.”
