Interview with Lukas Novak
Archyde: Mr. Novak,thank you for joining us. This near miss transfer of David Sagittarius to Middlesbrough has generated a lot of buzz. Can you shed some light on what happened?
lukas Novak: It was certainly a dramatic turn of events. Slovan Bratislava received considerable offers, with Middlesbrough especially persistent. Their initial offer of around 7 million euros was rejected, but they came back with an improved bid of 9.6 million euros, which seemed promising. However, it seems Slovan was unprepared for the complexities of finalizing the deal, which ultimately led to its collapse.
Archyde: Slovan’s spokesperson mentioned not reaching the final stage of negotiation. What are the possible reasons behind this lack of preparedness at such a crucial juncture?
lukas Novak: That’s a critical question, and unluckily, the specifics remain unclear. It might very well be related to various factors – perhaps internal communication issues, unforeseen legal complications, or simply a lack of experience handling high-profile transfers at this level.

Archyde: What are the implications of missing out on this hefty transfer fee, both financially and in terms of team morale?
Lukas Novak: It’s a important blow financially. Securing such a transfer fee could have provided much-needed resources to strengthen the squad and further develop Slovan’s facilities. Morally, it might lead to some uncertainty and questions, />
particularly if other European clubs show interest in Sagittarius.

Lukas Novak: Absolutely. This could be a chance for Slovan to reassess their transfer strategy and perhaps even negotiate a longer-term deal with Sagittarius, incorporating performance-based incentives. They need to capitalize on this situation and ensure that Sagittarius continues to flourish at Slovan.
Archyde: Moving forward, do you see Sagittarius successfully adapting to the physicality and tactical demands of top European leagues?
Lukas Novak: My personal opinion is that he has the potential.his technical skills and composure in front of goal are impressive. It will undoubtedly be a challenge, but with the right guidance and tactical understanding, I believe he can make a significant impact at a higher level.
