Maximum enthusiasm

“I’ve arrived here full of enthusiasm and excitement, which is very important for the team and for myself. I knew about Málaga’s situation, that there was interest in me, and I didn’t hesitate in accepting the proposal to sign to the Club. I’m here to give the best of myself, for the Club, and do the best I possibly can”.

Strong bet

“Caminero was the one who took a chance on me, he’s known me for a long time, from the youth ranks of Atlético de Madrid. He’s made a strong bet so now it’s my turn to return the confidence that he and Málaga have shown in me. I’m excited and raring to go, which will be a plus for the team and for me”.

Capable

“It’s a major challenge. I’m here at Málaga, a Club with many expectations and I can’t wait to compete, get to know my teammates and the coach and do the best I can. I’m looking forward to having a great season here. I’m confident and have been preparing well”.

Position

“I’m known for playing as a striker, although with Albacete I played on the wing and scored a number of goals. However, my usual position is that of a forward”.
