Ilias said, "I have clear ideas. I left Barcelona to come here and succeed at Villarreal. I have had offers that I had to listen to because they are surprising, but as I say I have very clear ideas and they involve staying here and succeeding at Villarreal."
Previously, his agent Horacio Gaggioli revealed: "I've been in this for many years and I've never seen anything like it. Even for much less. He has a lot of self-confidence and feels important at Villarreal.
"There were also English, Italian and German teams that asked about him during the Olympics."
