“It's not easy, you have to keep your head here. The closer it gets, the more anxiety sets in, the butterflies in your stomach. I'm trying to focus as much as possible here to leave well, with my head held high and through the front door and knowing that I gave my best.0

“Sometimes it's difficult, you imagine yourself in Europe, playing with several other players, with everything that Europe represents, a dream of mine."
