🗣️ “We believe your €150m superstar is not a forward, because you already have Mbappé, Vinicius…”, ask Horizonte.
Florentino Pérez: “Well, in Madrid, YOU ALWAYS NEED MORE”. 👀
Just a week ago, I was dreading the upcoming season and had no care in the world about the transfer window.
Now, I’m really looking forward to the new season and can’t wait to see who we bring in under Iraola.
Iraola on Anfield: “I’ve been the other side – I still remember the goal [Federico] Chiesa scored at the end of the first game of the season!
“We were there with 2-2 thinking that probably we could take something. He scored and the place erupted. It was crazy, no? I want now to feel this from the other side.
“At the beginning when you arrive at any club, I think you need to kind of prove a little bit yourself. You need to earn the right also to belong. I want to do this as quickly as possible so I can also celebrate with them and I can be part properly of those celebrations.
“For me, football is about emotions. About passion.
“I’m quite cool-headed probably, during my life quite rational, I would say. But it’s true that when the game starts, when you have to celebrate a goal, something is inside, no?
“I think this inner energy, you need it as a player, you need it as a supporter, you need it as a coach. No better place than Anfield.”
Iraola: “You don’t need a lot of things to get attracted by Liverpool. Liverpool is Liverpool.
“But obviously the atmosphere, the supporters, the club, the players, the chance for me to coach top-level players, the chance to fight for titles. I think it cannot be more attractive than this. It’s difficult to find it. So, really excited to start.”
