Munir El Haddadi has ensured that the Europa League conquered by Seville In Cologne (Germany) it has more value for him than the titles won with Barcelona, since he had a more active participation than he had in the Barça team despite the fact that the titles added were of greater importance.
“This cup has been very special for me, I have always commented on it. It is the one that has made me the most excited of all the ones I have, because in the others I was at Barcelona but I didn't have much prominence. In this I have felt very involved and it made me very excited ”, the Spanish-Moroccan commented in the official Sevilla media, specifically in an interview for the program‘ A dead ball ’, on the club's television.
The forward expressed his satisfaction at being in a club that embraces him and in which he is comfortable and important at a sporting level. Munir arrived at Sánchez Pizjuán in the winter market of the 18-19 season in exchange for only one million euros after communicating to Barcelona his intention not to renew.
“At Sevilla I feel so happy because it seems that I have been there all my life since I arrived. From the first day they treated me very well and we get along the same, so I feel like one more as if I was since I was little. I had other proposals in that market, but I had wanted to come and play for Sevilla for a long time and I thought I had to come and take the opportunity to enjoy football here. I had no doubt, “explains the player born in El Escorial, who also went through the experience of being confined at home because of a positive for coronavirus:” It is hard to be many months away from a soccer field, but the support of my family was fundamental and I have managed to maintain the same desire that I have always had. I try to work harder every day and prepare for what is to come. It went well for me that way and I had my reward ”.
In this sense, Munir recalled the first game after last season's suspension, a derby in which he was Lopetegui's surprise in the eleven. “The feeling was very strange because we played without an audience, without our fans. We all know what a derby means here. We knew we had to give everything, I think we played a great game. We all had the same desire to play again, to sweat the big shirt that we wear and that is what we have to do in every game we play, ”he commented.
