“I got injured straight after ten days of training, so I didn’t get the start I was hoping for. But I’m with the team regularly, so the integration went well,” said the 65-time Portugal international about his initial phase at the new club.
“I’m back now and I’m sure everything is going in the right direction. When you join a new team, you want to be available and perform right from the start,” said the versatile Bundesliga star.

The defensive player also raved about Thomas Tuchel. “He’s one of the reasons I’m here. I know him and I know his methods. He also developed further at the clubs he coached after Dortmund,” he explained: “The fact that I’m now in Munich is also down to him, he was one of several reasons.”
When asked what the coach had changed since his time together at BVB, the Portuguese replied: “Dortmund was his first really big experience. I feel like he was stricter back then. Now he gives his players more freedom while maintaining the fundamentals on the court. I think that makes a difference.”
