During a discussion on Radio Cádiz, the Galician forward, who made a significant impact in his debut, unequivocally stated that Cádiz CF would achieve salvation. His perspective, as a newcomer, allows him to view the situation with a fresh outlook, which he believes is vital for the team.
“"Without a doubt, Cádiz CF will be saved."
Pérez emphasized that the key lies in the spirit shown in the final minutes of the match against Andorra. That intensity and connection with the stands are, in his opinion, the atmosphere the team needs to turn its situation around. He recalled the contrast with the game against Córdoba, where the lack of support concerned him.
“"In the last 20 minutes against Andorra, we saw a different face; there was another spirit that was felt on the field, and that is the atmosphere we need. We have to achieve that together."
The player also defended his teammates, especially Suso, with whom he shares the experience of returning to a beloved club. Pérez valued Suso's effort and sense of belonging, and highlighted the importance of the experience of veterans like Álex, Brian, and Iza in taking responsibility on the field.
Regarding his own signing, Lucas Pérez clarified that his arrival at Cádiz CF was not due to friendship, but to a deep feeling and the need to play football again. He expressed his happiness in Cádiz and his desire to contribute to the team's salvation, acknowledging the affection of the fans, which reminds him of those of Deportivo.
“"I have come for the affection and respect I have for this club and these fans, I am not here for friendship. I am here for them, I don't want to be populist. I am here to try to save their Cádiz, not mine, their Cádiz."
