Speaking with the press after the draw, the center-back did admit that he would have loved to face another team, but made it clear that he would give his all to ensure that his new team, PSG, triumphs over his former team, Real Madrid. He said:
When I arrived on the plane it was [Manchester] United [who PSG got in the draw], who are a team that I liked and then it turns out that it wasn’t valid,
I would have preferred not to have that duel [against Real Madrid] but returning to the [Estadio Santiago] Bernabeu is cause for joy. I wasn’t able to bid farewell because of COVID-19.
Fate is capricious. I would have liked another team to face us [PSG]. You know the affection and love I have for Real Madrid.
Now it’s my turn to defend PSG and I’ll do everything possible to [help them] go through. They are the team that took a gamble on me. I’m going to fight to the death for PSG
