"I spent a week training at Real Madrid, in the cold. But, according to them, I didn't have the desired level. That's why I went to Las Palmas, a natural choice anyway, because every child in the Canary Islands dreams of playing there. Las Palmas, I would never be here talking to you," the Spanish midfielder who was awarded Kopa Trophy, began by saying.
"They're the most important team [in the Canary Islands], along with Tenerife. Both are being very successful this season in the 2nd Division, so it would be nice if one of them moved up so they could play at home. A 2. The Spanish 1st Division is very difficult. It's another football: stronger, more physical, where you don't have the ball as much as with Barcelona in La Liga. I must emphasize all the progress I made in the defensive part. I gained experience", he added.
