Andy Bara: 'I froze! What is this?

Andy Bara, the agent involved in Livakovic's transfer to Girona, said: "I helped with his transfer. I called the club, the manager and the club wanted him very much. Livakovic refused a big salary just to play because the national team is the most important thing in the world for him. He didn't play in the first game, I thought, "He's new, he'll play in the next game." When I saw that he still didn't play in the game they lost 4-0, I froze! I thought, "What is this?" The most striking thing was that they asked for the amount to buy Livakovic's contract. I laughed at that, they want to buy Livakovic's contract even though he's not playing?" he said.

Girona Sporting Director Quique Carcel also spoke about Livakovic, saying: "I never promised anyone that he would come here and be guaranteed a place in the team. I don't know what Livakovic's agent said in Croatia, but it's not true that I promised him that. It's impossible! We didn't want to make any changes in the goalkeeper position, but then there was the opportunity to sign Livakovic, an incredible option. We managed to sign him on the last day of the transfer window, which was really difficult. But Livakovic didn't come with a guarantee to play. I didn't promise anyone that he would play and Livakovic has to fight for it, like everyone else."
