Soldo: We have not come to lose against Persepolis / Traktor will be strengthened, it will not return to its good days this season

According to the sports reporter of Fars News Agency, Zunimir Soldo stated in a press conference before the game with Persepolis in the thirteenth week of the Premier League: ‌‌ What can be said about tomorrow’s game, according to the schedule of Persepolis, claims this match. The tractor has not had good results in the last few weeks and we are trying to get the situation back to a better state. We work on the team and each match has its own mode.

He added: “Tomorrow we are looking to play well in Tehran and we want to get points so that the team can get out of its situation in recent weeks.”

Regarding the latest condition of Mohammad Reza Akhbari, the head coach of Traktor said: ‌ He trained with us last week, his condition is not relatively bad, but I have to talk to Akhbari to see his mental readiness. If he is ready, he will most likely play. However, due to his experience and being one of the biggest tractors, his presence on the ground can be very fruitful. We are waiting to see what will happen tomorrow.

Soldo stated that apparently the Tractor Club has given an ultimatum to this coach for tomorrow’s game against Persepolis: (At this moment, the Tractor’s media manager announced that there was no ultimatum for Soldo) ‌ I talked to the club management and said that this team will have very difficult conditions this year. When I saw the situation of the players in the first few days of my presence and got to know them, I realized that Traktor did not start the season well. This team has undergone many changes in the head coach and you know that it has lost a lot of valuable players.

The head coach of Traktor said: “The whole organization of Traktor is in disarray and they asked me to do my best to make the team more stable. Although we have not had good results in recent matches, the problems have been too much.” I told the club managers that a very difficult season awaits Traktor. Meanwhile, this team must be strengthened, which we hope will be done in the middle of the season. One of our problems is the injury of some of the main players of the tractor who could not reach the games. Another problem that of course exists for all teams is that we have to play every 4-5 days. The weather conditions in Tabriz have made things very difficult for us, but we are trying to get the tractor out of this situation.

“Certainly, Traktor will play well tomorrow,” Soldo said of whether his team would play against Persepolis to win or draw. The tractor of the team is very good with a lot of spectators, the force behind this team is the twelfth friend of the tractor and I hope we play a good game against Persepolis. It is very difficult to predict what tomorrow’s match will be like, but we have not come to say that we will lose this match, we are looking for points in Tehran and my players are highly motivated.

Regarding his plans to strengthen Traktor in the first half of the season, he replied: “You are all journalists, football experts, and you know that now is the time when it is difficult to find a good player.” During this time, my colleagues and I worked hard with the club to find good players. These people are under the contract of their own players, and people who are out or injured or have problems that they have not trained with a team for 6-7 months. This situation also exists for foreign players. Since the day I came, I have tried to add players to the team, and I hope that this will happen in transfers.

In response to Fars reporter that Soldo said that due to the lack of care of managers and a number of tractor fans, he thinks that it will take a few weeks for his team to get out of the crisis and become one of the contenders for time, he said: It has been so much that it has caused the tractor not to have a good shape and stability. I do my best but I do not promise. I have also told the club that it is not the right thing to promise. However, Traktor is in a situation where even if it strengthens in the middle of the season, it will not be able to reach its very happy days. This difficult season must be left behind. Creating a team is not an overnight task and we need a long time to work with the tractor and form this team. Even with the strengthening of this team, the situation will only get a little better, but I do not expect my team to return to good days with the same changes.
