After all, you knew me when I was 16 », Recalled the Spanish international, who seeks to progress each season and have more influence in the collective. After participating in the Spanish success with his double, alongside scorers Pubill and Nico Williams, he also wanted to thank the supporters: “ They always support us a lot, we are very happy.
