A challenge for which he assures he is more than prepared and that is because after his departure from Barcelona, his goal was to land in a big team in Europe and Atleti is the place.

He considers himself a demanding person and does not set limits. He describes Luis Aragonés as a genius, he also coincided with him and certainly values the influence of grassroots football, which he will support and promote.

There is no doubt that his arrival is a breath of very fresh air and of great confidence for what is to come in the future of Atlético de Madrid.
