I am the same person and the same professional that I have been for the last 20 years playing football at the highest level and respect has always played a very important role in my decision-making process.

I started very young, and the examples of older and more experienced players were always very important to me. Therefore, later on, I myself tried to set an example for the youth who grew up in all the teams for which I played.

Unfortunately, this is not always possible, and sometimes the adrenaline of the moment overwhelms us,” he wrote. Cristiano Ronaldo.

Although that is no longer an option for Erik ten Hag, the Portuguese is training professionally and looks ready for a new challenge this winter.
