It will help me a lot to grow as a player, which is what I want ”.

My idea was always to play and here from the first moment they called me they told me that I would have many opportunities. I really liked that because he is playing in three competitions. I am young, I need to play and that they continue to see me from the national team. This is a great site to demonstrate. “
