The Canarian international, who plays under the orders of the Portuguese coach, at Saudi side Al Hilal, was challenged to choose the athlete "with the most tired can" with whom he had the opportunity to share the dressing room, having ended up choosing Vinícius Júnior, in an intervention that provoked laughter.
"The ugliest? Damn, I've played with a lot of... Damn... The fight is going to be good. Damn, with all due respect, Vini Jr. is... he's crazy, you know? Vini, I love you , but, bro... The good thing is that he's funny, so it makes up for it. Ugly funny goes unnoticed", he stated.
"Idols in football, I had many. They were all references. It's difficult, very difficult. I really liked... I'll say a different one, I won't talk about the normal ones, which are very big. Alex", he added, before underlining that " the best" he saw play "was [Lionel] Messi".
Finally, the forward named André Iniesta as the one who "surprised" him the most, Thiago Silva and Casemiro (ex-FC Porto) as the best central defender and striker he faced, respectively, and Keylor Navas and Manuel Neuer as the goalkeepers more complicated to beat.
