“Ashley Cole is a fantastic defender. I have seen him keep the best players in the world quiet.”

“Football is about joy. It's about dribbling. I favour every idea that makes the game beautiful. Every good idea has to last.”

“I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them.”

“My family is everything. I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them.”

“Football is a great love because I was born into a family of players and therefore born into football. I'm fortunate to have a style of play that a lot of people like. It's a privilege to be able to do what I like best and in my own way, but I'm fortunate that people like it, and that motivates me even more.”

“I grew up in a house that was always happy, and my family was always music, music. I started playing percussion very young, because I had some uncles who were musicians and all my aunts were singers.”

“My only concern is playing. Everything else, my family looks after. In our house, everyone has a job, and my job in our house is to play football.”
