Quotes No, not professionally, but I played the sport. I grew up in Ajegunle. There is no person in Ajegunle who doesn’t play football. It may not be professional, but I did play football, and I still play to this day. No, there was never a time I wanted to take football professionally. I was only playing football for fun, but I never ever thought of going professional with it. I won’t say parental influence because I never thought I wanted to be a footballer, but of course, the trajectory of the life that my parents would have organised would have somewhat shaped some of the things or moved some of the things that you’re interested in. I just loved football as a kid who grew up in an environment where football was a big deal. But it was not that I ever thought I was going to be a professional, never for once. So maybe my parents just left it because of how they organised my life, that’s just it. I’m going to say Barcelona. I’m expecting a sextuple this season. We need to go all out. Because for a club like Barcelona, it’s heartbreaking that the last time we won a Champions League was in 2015, which was 10 years ago. How can a club like Barcelona go 10 years without the Champions League trophy? So, first of all, the Champions League will be the most important trophy. I think it should be the most important trophy for Hansi Flick and the entire Barcelona boys this season. They look exciting, you know, one or two add-ons here and there. I don’t see anything in La Liga standing in our way this season. But, you know, the Champions League, sometimes it doesn’t matter how you play. It comes with some sort of luck, some sort of mistake from your opponent. But I’m hoping that this season we organise ourselves enough to do the same to people. Because, of course, if we win the Champions League, we are winning, obviously, the European Super Cup. And that’s it, you know. I would be beyond happy if we win only the Champions League because, for the past 10 years, after the MSN era, we have not gone beyond a certain round. I think the last time we had to go to the semi-final, and then the other time, where we lost to Liverpool very painfully. So the league is no longer a big deal for us. We can easily win the league. But I think the Champions League for me is the most important trophy we should be looking out for this season, and we’re getting it anyway.
