During a recent press conference at the Ciudad Deportiva de Barranco Seco, an attacker from the yellow squad conveyed a message of great optimism and ambition. At a crucial point in the Hypermotion League, with eight teams vying for six promotion spots with four matches remaining, the player confidently stated that UD Las Palmas is the best team in Segunda División and that he considers himself the best footballer in the category.
“"The locker room is focused and energized. But it's just like any other week. I ask the fans to keep trusting us; we are going to give our all until the end."
On a personal level, the former Real Madrid player expressed that he is enjoying his current spell like never before, feeling the affection of the supporters. He emphasized the importance of winning the next four matches, starting with the game against Andorra this Sunday, to achieve the promotion goal.
The forward also shared his desire to achieve promotion, a goal that eluded him in his previous stint with the team, under the management of García Pimienta, after a playoff against Tenerife. He assured that he has the utmost enthusiasm to return the club to Primera División, where he believes it deserves to be, but stressed the need to remain calm.
“"I have regained my passion for competing, and I want to repay the fans for all their affection by giving my all on the field. The truth is, the crowd gives you goosebumps, and I only think about contributing and helping my teammates in whatever is needed. We have a great group here, with many talented young players."
Regarding his contractual situation, which expires at the end of the season, the player chose not to comment, indicating that it is not a priority at this time. He highlighted his happiness in his homeland and the excellent treatment received from the club, feeling supported.
Finally, he analyzed the situation of a teammate, who has not played in recent matches, stating that he is training very well and will be a key player by the end of the season. He also praised the coach, Luis García, for his management and the difficult decisions he has to make.
