However, he emphasizes that his primary focus is on the present season, and decisions about the future will be evaluated in due course. The manager values the commitment shown by players, irrespective of their contract status.
While recognizing the importance of players performing well for the club’s long-term goals, Corberan also acknowledges the personal interests of players when it comes to contract discussions. He emphasizes the positive aspect of players being aware that their future within or outside the club depends on their performance during the current year. According to Corberan, the passion for the job, the club, and teammates should be the driving force for players, surpassing considerations about the remaining years on their contracts.
