Quique Sánchez Flores addressed Valencia’s turmoil while previewing Tuesday’s LaLiga meeting with Valencia at Mendizorroza, stressing his focus remains on Alavés.

According to Superdeporte, the Alavés head coach noted the recent exits of Carlos Corberán and Ron Gourlay after a poor start to the season, but said he had a formed opinion he would not make public.

He underlined his long-standing respect and affection for Valencia since childhood. He said he stands with Valencianistas who are suffering, yet his priority is his team and winning tomorrow.

Now 60, he spent 10 years as a Valencia player and a little over two as their coach. It is 20 years since his contractual departure from Mestalla.

His abrupt exit after only nine LaLiga matches surprised much of the fanbase and a dressing room that included Cañizares, Ayala, Carboni, Curro, Albelda, Baraja, Vicente and Villa. He has often been linked with a return to the Valencia bench.
