The best players want to play for the best clubs in Europe and appear in top competitions like the Champions League.

I'm going to stop playing football after 22 years.

I began training the young players at Nova Iguacu and at Boavista, and I enjoyed it. I had always wanted to be a coach, and this accelerated the process.

You have to want to improve all the time.

Real Madrid has a lot of high expectations, not only in terms of results but also with nice football and a lot of goals.

The most important thing for me is to value the players and try to improve them individually in order to improve the team.

I have been fortunate to work with many great coaches and also in different countries, and I have taken a bit from all of them - Dutch, Spanish, Italian, and Brazilian football.

If a guy has five good games and then starts to go out, drink, sleep late, live the wrong kind of lifestyle, then his performances will always suffer.

For me, winning isn't just about lifting the cup, the trophy - it's about giving your maximum, on and off the pitch.

Once you stop wanting to improve, you start to slide. And if you want to keep winning, if you want to stay at the top, that's not something you can afford to do.

When we're playing, I really shape my body to receive the ball - even before it gets to me.

But I think we have to enjoy the moment, because when it stops, it stops. And I think that as long as I'm fit, I need to be on the pitch, running.

Humanitarian work is something I've felt from very young, and I'm going to do that for sure.

I think that you cannot have everything in life, and sometimes you just - destiny wants you to take another path.

Let's say that the teams I played in were all excellent. I played with many, many great players and incredible teams.

I'm on a mission partly to make a difference in the world for the better, starting with the kids. They are the future.

Players don't trust most of the people around them.

I am aware of my own position and my responsibilities to youngsters watching us. You are a role model.

Football is not just what you do on the field.

We need to educate young people, give them the possibility to understand that the diversity is positive, to feel and experience it, so that they can then join forces in promoting more diverse world.

Companies and football teams have become successful precisely because of how diverse they are.

Football can help carve a more diverse world.

Every player needs to be happy and proud to play for Cameroon.

We try to bring in the best players for Cameroon: not just best in terms of talent but those who are motivated and who know what it means to play for this nation.
