I am someone who wants to win. Not only competitions, but also titles. I always wanted to play in La Liga at a big club. I want to grab this opportunity with both hands.”
“This is also a new chapter for my private life. I know it’s time for Barca to get back to the top and win as many titles as possible. I spoke with Xavi and from the start I was aligned with his ideas. The choice for Barcelona was therefore quickly made. I want to win titles and I feel it is possible with Xavi. He has been a very good player and he is a very good coach. There are also players with great qualities, so together we can bet high.”
