The coach spoke ahead of the Copa del Rey clash with Leganes in the last 16

Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari spoke to media on Tuesday ahead of the Copa del Rey clash against Leganes in the last 16. Here are his key quotes:

VAR: "VAR depends on the rules being clear. If they are clear and they are always applied in the same type of actions and decisions, that makes it easier for everyone to understand: player, press and fans. There needs to be a period to perfect it. The other day we weren’t complaining, we were defending ourselves and that is a legitimate right."

His position: "It's a wonderful job and working at Real Madrid, anywhere in the club, is wonderful, an honour and a privilege because it's the club I love. I see the same level of dedication in all employees. You just have to see the work of the gardeners."

Will Brahim Diaz debut? "He was good in training and is happy to be at Real Madrid. His choice of number was a good one. Whether or not he plays tomorrow will depend on the administrative side."
