get a haircut every 2 weeks to stay sharp, wait 5 secs before answering the phone to control the rhythm, always arrive 15 mins early, stay away from free lunches, never talk about people who aren't in the room and when anger rises, wait 10 mins before reacting. these habits may look rigid but they're the hidden discipline of the elite.
Will miss Cucurella’s infectious character and those elite 12-18 months won’t be forgotten, but this is 100% for the best.
Timing is right.
One of the right sacrifices to go to the next level.
Not special enough to be a starter without being elite technically or physically in the PL. Especially with our already lacking athleticism in the squad.
Can’t wanna improve and be scared with every change.
As a 28 years old LB, that’s a nice fee + he gets his dream move too in a league that suits him.
No bad blood at all.
Well wishes to him 🇪🇸💙
🚨A Modern Epigraphic Discovery unveils an Inscription where Zayd Bin Hassan (The Grandson of the Prophet) Writes the following:
"I, Zaid bin Al-Hasan, believe in God alone with no partner, and I bear witness that there is no god but God alone, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. Upon this I live as long as I live, and upon it I die when I die. And I ask God to bring me close to Muhammad in the Hereafter as He brought me close to him in this world, and to make me one of his beloved ones, his chosen ones, and his elite. O God, bless us in this abode of ours and ward off from us its evil and the evil of every evildoer."
I love how she remains unfazed by the stardom and still attends major events fully covered. A beautiful reminder that success doesn’t have to come at the expense of your values. Ma Shaa Allah 🤍
Dear football,
Today, I want to share with you that this season will be my last as a professional footballer. After so many years living my dream, I feel it’s time to start a new chapter in my life.
Being honest, even though I have been preparing myself for this moment, I found it hard to write this letter. After 20 seasons , many people have played an important role in my career.
When I first kicked a ball as a child in Pamplona with my schoolmates, I never imagined the amazing journey ahead. I’m grateful for every moment: the wins, the tough losses, the challenges, and most of all, the people I’ve met and the friendships I’ve made along the way.
To my teammates, coaches, and every staff member at all the clubs I’ve been lucky to be part of, thank you for helping me grow as a person and a player every day. Wearing the shirts of CA Osasuna, Olympique Marseille, Chelsea FC, Atlético de Madrid, Sevilla FC, and representing my country at the biggest stages has been a true privilege. Every moment has meant so much to me…
