I WANT FRANKIE DE JONG
Sahin, who was showered with questions by the students, said that if a student was given a transfer limit of ’50 million Euros’, which player would you like to take to the team?’ He replied, “If it were Messi, you wouldn’t be able to get it for 50 million Euros. But if there was such a budget, I would like Frankie De Jong from Barcelona.
“RONALDO HISTORY THE GREATEST FOOTBALL PLAYER EVER”
Asked about his memories of Ronaldo or Messi, Şahin continued his words as follows: “I played in the same team with Ronaldo. I have memories with him. There was the World Cup in Germany. I was also 16 years old and I was a Ronaldo fan. I asked my sponsor to introduce Ronaldo to Ronaldo and we met. He told me He gave me a jersey as a gift and I remember that day when we became teammates 5-6 years later. He said to me, ‘You said you would be in the same team with me that day. I’m so glad it happened.’ I had very good memories with him in terms of humanity.”
