The gaffer told the a press conference, as cited by IDiski Times website:

“We actually brought our Chief Scout with us on this tour.

“Because, of course, we’re interested to build our own team as strong as possible but when we’re here, when we play in such a tournament, when we play the other team, if there is anything exciting going on [we wouldn’t say no].”
