Valencia CF ended Thursday’s work with a squad barbecue at Paterna after training under Javier Aguirre. The gathering came during the international break with 10 days until the trip to Racing de Santander.
According to Superdeporte, Guido Rodríguez, Pepelu and Jesús Vázquez were among the players seen helping to prepare the food. It was the first barbecue of Aguirre’s tenure.
The meal alone does not guarantee results, nor does it resolve Valencia’s delicate run, but it projected unity in the dressing room in Aguirre’s opening weeks. The Mexican coach faces the task of lifting a group hit by a start well below expectations.
Valencia are in the relegation places and need a quick response. The staff are embedding ideas, increasing training intensity and strengthening day-to-day cohesion.
The visit to El Sardinero is the next test. Until then, Aguirre has several days to keep working on and off the pitch as the squad looks for the turning point that has eluded them so far this season.
