These are his words:
“They say that affliction is the price that is paid for losing what you love well. That is now my feeling and I do not want it to be another. It will already happen … This mixes, with the pride I feel of having given everything for my club, which I have always tried to represent on and off the court, with the dignity that for me involves carrying its shield in my chest.
I went to Madrid's values and I hope I could return how much it gave me. I am satisfied to have contributed my grain of sand to the great history of the club.
