“My family and my agent thought that the best for me was to go to the Tottenham.<\/strong> The plan, the configuration, the players with which would train. They thought that it would be the best for my development. If I am honest, really did not have voice. It were 15 years old<\/strong>, I saw paper on the table and said me that it signed it”, confessed, adding that “perhaps the big arrepentimiento did not go not even join to the Barcelona, but leave the Palace”.<\/strong><\/p>
