Llorente: “The merit of my change belongs to Simeone, I am comfortable near the area”

Llorente was one of the signings that gave the best performance in the
Atlético de Madrid
in the last campaign. A situation that you want to maintain already in this new campaign.

The Madrilenian attacker from Madrid knew how to readjust, from the hand of Diego Pablo Simeone, to end up as one of the fittest players on the European scene.

Hence GQ Spain magazine
chose him as one of the images of its September issue, which has as its motto “Change
is
Good”(Change is good). The player acknowledged that “Anfield it was a turning point ”for him.

Marcos Llorente poses for GQ magazine.

THE ANFIELD PARTY

“It was the most beautiful night of my career, without a doubt. It will be in my memories forever and it was spectacular, not only on a personal level, but for what it meant for the team. “

THE MERIT OF YOUR CHANGE

“When you experience a change, when a change like this occurs and things are going well, it is something super special. I know that it is something difficult, that there is not much, so it makes me very happy to have had this opportunity. The credit of course goes to the coach, because he is the one who ultimately decides in which position you play. He saw that a little higher up he was going to bring very good things to the team and that, as he said, in training it was clear that he could play higher. Then Anfield day went super well and it was a turning point ”.

PHYSICAL PREPARATION

“For me it is something natural and simple because I have always liked to train and take care of myself as much as possible, not only to increase my sports performance, but also for my health. Yes, constancy is very important, because we are all older and we know how to differentiate what is good and what is bad, but you have to be persistent to always choose what is good. I believe that for an elite athlete to be well, he must take care of four fundamental pillars: diet, exercise, head and rest. Anything that can help me improve any of those pillars, I'm going to do it ”.

CLOSER TO THE AREA

“It is true that I have never seen myself so close to the area, in situations in which I am the one who finishes, but I feel comfortable and I understand very well with the attack partners.”

YOUR PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE

“I have a fixed phrase on my Instagram: 'I work hard, a clear conscience.' It is something that my father told me many years ago and it is the phrase that I have carried with me everywhere. Especially because, when things are going well, everyone likes to work, they like to improve; But when they don't go well, that's when I've repeated those words to myself the most. Sometimes, no matter how hard you work, the rewards don't come and one way to be happy with yourself, to stay happy, is to work hard and have a clear conscience. When you're not working hard at the end you get the buzz in your head of 'What if I could have done something else?'

THE
IMPORTANCE
HIS FATHER'S

“He has supported me a lot as a father, but above all he has given me very important advice, since in the end he is someone who knows the football elite very well. He also had many times when he did not play and that is why he has told me to always try to enjoy football, since he has regretted not enjoying at those times. We all want to win titles, but in the end we are privileged to make a living from what we like and my long-term goal is to enjoy this sport to the fullest. And, as my father always tells me: “If you work hard, you can't blame yourself for anything.”

DRESSING STYLE

“I am quite classic in dress, you will seldom see me with a shirt on the street. I almost always wear a shirt, although I know that it is not normal for boys my age. Sometimes in the dressing room they mess with me for it (laughs). It is the clothes that I feel most comfortable in and the one that makes a man stand out the most ”.

LIKE FOR WATCHES

“I love them, I got into the world of watches a few years ago and once you enter, you are lost. I already have a good collection and the last one is a Tudor in blue, very classic and very summery, which fascinates me ”.
