As Los Rojiblancos face the Tanzanian league kings, he is anticipating a good game while hoping there are no injuries.

“First of all, I want to congratulate Simba for winning the league. Everyone in football knows that is no mean feat,” he continued.

“We want the match to be a true show and for the people to enjoy themselves. I hope there'll be no injuries.”

He went a step further by explaining why LaLiga is key to the growth of football.

“It's the footballers. You've got Navas, Messi, Ramos, Banega... The best players in the world play here and that has repercussions in the media because everyone wants to come and see the best. [On Thursday], we're going to be seeing players who have won the World Cup.”
