Enes Unal: “My short-term goal is to play the European Championship with Turkey”

Enes Unal, Turkish forward for Getafe, is “very well” in the Madrid team, with which he hopes to “score soon” his first goal, and revealed that his “short-term” objective is to play the Eurocup in 2021 with his national team, which he has represented fourteen times so far.

Unal, 23, It is a firm bet of the sports management of Getafe, which has signed a long contract for five seasons.

“I'm very good at Getafe. Everything is perfect with my teammates, with the coach and all the people are being as I expected,” said Unal, who played for Valladolid the last two seasons.

“Now with the virus issue it is a little more complicated, but you can feel that Getafe's is a very familiar dressing room and very quiet. In training you work a lot and I like that, so everything is perfect, “he confessed.

So far, of the four games played by Getafe, the Turkish forward has played three, although in all of them coming off the bench.

“Hopefully a goal will come soon. I really want to score and help the team “, Unal pointed out, which is making it “strange” to play games without fans.

“Something is missing because when you talk about football in Turkey, the first thing that comes to your mind is fans and passion. I hope the fans will return to the stadium soon”, Unal commented, in an interview broadcast by the club.

The Turkish striker, a fourteen-time international with Turkey, said his “short-term goal” is to be able to play at the European Championship in 2021.

“It would be great to think about seeing me there, I can't imagine it. When I talk to people who have had that experience they tell me it's something different. A Champions League is a very good thing, but going with the national team and play a European Championship or a World Cup It is something different, “said Unal, although he admitted that” if there is no hobby, it will not be the same. “

“The fans are part of that, because a League or a Champions League is a goal to achieve something, but a European Championship or a World Cup is more of a party to enjoy. You have to achieve goals, you represent your country, but there is also a little more partying because many countries come together and seeing fans from all over Europe is something special, “he concluded.
