future.

"We have to be aware that today Real Madrid and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 are on a different level and competing directly against them is practically impossible," Cazorla said in an meeting with press representatives.
"Hopefully in the next few years projects like the one here at Malaga, and other teams like Valencia, Villarreal and Atletico Madrid can be closer to them. It would be good for the league to be more levelled out so all teams can have similar chances.”
"But for now the difference is very big and it's practically impossible to compete with them. Let's hope Malaga will be able to be up there in the near future."
