🚨 Fede Valverde on being Real Madrid captain:
"So much emotion, so much honor. I think a lot about what I've been through, beautiful things, bad things... And the moment arrived."
"I grew a lot with teammates with whom I shared the locker room like Carvajal, Ramos, Kroos, Modric, Lucas Vázquez... I'll never get tired of naming them. They helped me grow as a person, as a captain, and as a player."
"This will be my first year as first captain and I'm going to try to enjoy it to the fullest and give it my all, not just on the field, but also off it so that all my teammates feel comfortable."
