The issue of a sporting director has long been a point of contention in Valencia, especially following Mateu Alemany’s departure. In these remarks, Murthy suggests that coaches are often driven by ego and that sporting directors are tasked with making bets over time without personally injecting capital. He also values the idea that there is no official sports director in the club’s strategic plan, highlighting a tension between long-term planning and hands-on management in decision-making processes. The conversations hint at a broader critique of how professional roles are perceived and deployed within the organization, reminding readers that leadership at a club of this scale involves balancing expertise with accountability.
Murthy further elaborates on the realities of hiring and performance. He reflects on a world where professionals are frequently evaluated based on track records and public perception, not just on theoretical concepts. He notes that the distribution of funds, the ability to attract players, and the overall competitive vision are all part of a larger debate about where responsibility lies when it comes to building a team capable of delivering results. He compares the Spanish context with examples from Germany, pointing to leagues and clubs where budgets, coaching personnel, and competitive targets align with a concrete plan. In his view, even in top European leagues, success requires a combination of smart budgeting, clear governance, and strategic execution that matches the club’s ambitions.
