Now, the forward of 22 years dreams big and hopes to be summoned by Luis de la Fuente with the Selection facing the World.
Of the 4 goals he has scored this season, three of them have been in the last few days, so Roberto Fernández is earning merit to go with Spain. In addition, Espanyol is fifth in LaLiga EA Sports. “These are very difficult numbers to achieve, but we are always saying that even though we are up there, we have our feet on the ground. We come from where we come from and we always have to know that: feet on the ground and continue, game by game”, he commented about it in an interview for Sports World.
“I’m starting to have that finesse in front of the door that I had last year. Little by little, working, I will continue to be at that level: I want to surpass last year’s level”, declared Roberto Fernández, ambitious.
Roberto Fernández and the possibility of being called up to the National Team for the World Cup: “I would be proud to defend my flag”
Asked about the possibility of going to the World Cup with the National Team, he said: “For me it would be a pride, but there are quite a few incredible forwards in this National Team. I’m going to work for myself, it’s true that I haven’t gone to any yet, I come from the U-21, but I hope one day I can represent my country. It would be the greatest and proudest thing to defend my flag”.
In turn, asked if he saw any of his teammates at Espanyol going with the National Team, Roberto Fernández said: “There is always no level, to be fifth in LaLiga you already have to do things too well. And individually everyone is doing their role quite well. If there is a Betis player who has been able to go, we also have someone who can go”.
