Last January, he said that he did not regret his choice. “People think it is a country closed with severe restrictions. This is the opinion there (in the West), but when you come here, it's totally different. The mentality is very open. I am really passionate about football and, as long as I am a player, I will only think of football, that's all. When I retire, I may think of other things. But when I decided to come, I didn't think about it (…) I can understand how they see life. They can have their opinion, but I also have mine. My choice only concerns football, not political situations and all that … I saw nothing that shocked me and who made me say that it was a mistake to come here. ”
