I just tried to take advantage of the opportunity they gave me to work hard and humble and do my best And it is also what I came to Paris to do my best for and win as many titles as possible. to catch up with my teammates, for the fans and for my family ”.
The differences for the goalkeeper are clear: “They are two great teams, both trying to make history. When I arrived in Paris I felt the love of the club, they received me incredibly well and that is important to me,” he concluded.
