Monchi tells why she sold it to Cowden Barcelona instead of the Chelseas

French defenders also preferred to pass on to the Catalan team

Seville's sports director Monchi has discussed the departure of Yules Counde and his official passage to Barcelona this Thursday.

Monchi has shown that Chelsea had contracted with them to buy the Frenchman, but Barcelona's offer was better than what they got from Premier League club.

“is a story that will now give a calm and normal”, Monchi said.

We have a business model that allows us to do this today. Through capital income, we hold here a workforce that is higher than normal income. The workforce gets almost 100 percent or more of our income”, he wrote.

In the last three years, we've only done for sale. This summer we have financial problems because we haven't sold before. This has made us sell because we haven't done it in the past. Now we have two big sales”.

“We have been able to get good money without paying many mediators or commissions. That was a very good offer. The market dictates the player's value. We needed to sell County, we said that quietly. I'm glad. We've done what needs to be done to protect the interests of Seville”

It's true that eventually Chelsea wanted to come back with a better offer, but Barcelona's offer was better than that of Chelsea. The best offer to come from Barcelona”.

Monchi has also shown that things were complicated in fact because they had first reached an agreement with Chelsea, who finally withdrew and then came to expression Barcelona.
