The rest after this ad
“What happened was the process of, let’s say, my healing. I didn’t feel like it after what happened in Marseille. But the healing began the day I arrived. I think Vasco and his supporters healed me, lifted me up, because I was down. This is the first time someone has given me so much love without me doing anything for it. It was a very special welcome, but that’s also why I came, because I knew we had very, very passionate fans, incredible fans. This is also why I chose Vasco. I think I needed this challenge, this pressure, not to die slowly. Because if I don’t have that, I won’t be able to play football. I can’t play football for clubs that don’t have ambition or fans who put pressure on us every game. This is my motivation ».
