Rumors were coming out of Spain last night that Levante boss Parfitt was in contention for the vacant position at Bayern Munich.
When asked, Parfitt admitted that an approach had been made, but he has decided to stay on at Levante. The decision does on the face of it seem to be a poor one, but the man himself feels that he has something to work with at Levante, and is looking forward to the challenge of moving the club away from the division four danger zone.
He did confirm that the decision was indeed very difficult though, comparing it to having to decide between sticking with the missus, or taking off with Fearne Cotton. In the end though, as much as Cotton is perfect, you know what you get with the missus.
Things are looking a little more positive on the pitch now. Two wins in a row against fellow Spanish opponents, a 3 – 2 victory away to Celta Vigo, and 2 – 1 at home to Villareal last night have seen Levante move off bottom, and currently sit 17th in the league. The league is incredibly tight at the moment however, with the club sitting only four points behind Espanyol, who occupy the final play off spot at present.
The current form table also makes for pleasent reading. Levante are currently in 7th spot form wise, picking up nine points in the last six league games. Considering they only show fifteen for the season as a whole, the turn around in recent weeks has been impressive.
Vaclev Kadlec has been instrumental in the clubs turn around in fortunes. Parfitt has moved him away from the wing and given him the number nine role, and the player has responded in style. He has now notched six goals and is currently the clubs top scorer.
It isnt all down to Kadlec though. Diego Souza and experienced new signing Roberto Trashorras, have helped to control the midfield, whilst another new signing, Ibrahima Balde, has helped relieve some of the pressure on Kadlev up top.
