On loan Real Madrid midfielder speaks, amid he was kicked off the team bus

On loan Real Madrid midfielder  Lucas Silva has insisted that he was not kicked out of team bus by  Marseille‘s president en route to Montpellier.

However, the move couldn’t work according to his liking, despite of starting considerable games at the beginning of the season.

Marseille tried to offload Silva in January, by sending him to  Belgian outfit Anderlecht, which he refused, as per reports.

However he has clarified, that he was never asked to leave the club.

“On the last day of the transfer window, I was on the bus with the team in order to travel to a match, while negotiations were taking place with European clubs,” he explained.

“I was then told by OM to stay in Marseille because I could travel at any moment as a result of these negotiations.

“Having said that, I have never been asked to leave the bus as some media vehicles suggested.”

“The decision to stay in OM was based on my personal belief that commitments must be honoured,” he continued.

“Besides that, I am an athlete who always grew in front of major challenges, overcoming them many times during my career.

“The decision to join OM was driven by the great interest showed by the president and the coach.

“Since my arrival, I have demonstrated total commitment to the club. As an example, I took the initiative to work with one of the best physical coaches in Brazil, and I am physically better than ever before in my career.”

He added: “I also take this opportunity to reinforce that I will stay at OM until the end of my contract and will continue to fully dedicate myself to the club. Moreover, I would like to thank the coach and my team-mates who have always supported me.

“Finally, I am also very grateful to OM’s fans for the way they received me in Marseille. Be assured that my dedication to the club is total and that I’ll make all the efforts to help the team succeed this season.”
