Mixu: Hibs always have to sell
07 Feb 2009 - 12:42:39
Hibernian boss Mixu Paatelainen has admitted that the Easter Road club will always face the threat of seeing their better players picked off by bigger clubs.
Paatelainen fended off interest in Steven Fletcher and Rob Jones during the January transfer window, but accepts that he will be unable to do so again in the summer.
He told The Scotsman: "We realise the difficulty of building a team. We are not a club that pays huge wages.
"Players with proper talent, fantastic players, are used to getting big wages and we are not in the position to offer that kind of money.
"I want to build, I want to keep the best players and bring in others to improve and get the whole team playing well.
"But football is a short game and if someone comes in from even the lower leagues in England, they can offer the players twice or three times the money they get from us."
