(upbeat music)
00:03
- It was a great feeling.
00:04
When I heard AC Miller was looking for me
00:07
and they want to sign me,
00:08
I was a little bit nervous and everything.
00:11
And through all my social media,
00:13
I was seeing the Zaria fans,
00:16
AC Miller fans writing me,
00:17
sending me messages to come to the club.
00:19
They are amazing people.
00:20
That's the most,
00:21
the first expression was the fans.
00:23
They are the people that makes me to come here
00:24
because the way they were sending me messages,
00:26
tagging me, telling me so many things to come to the club.
00:29
That was actually what makes me to come here
00:32
because the way they were sending me messages
00:35
on my Instagram pages was amazing.
00:37
I think the fans are amazing also.
00:39
That's what makes me to come here.
00:40
They told me I was,
00:41
I thought he was joking or maybe,
00:44
(laughs)
00:45
I thought he was joking,
00:45
but literally when he sent me the draft contract
00:49
of AC Miller, I was like,
00:50
let me think about it and see what he's doing.
00:53
I didn't think about it twice or thrice.
00:54
I said, okay, I think I need to make another step
00:57
with AC Miller.
00:59
- I think six years, you keep learning.
01:01
Every year you keep learning.
01:02
Every time you keep learning,
01:03
I think it's the most important thing.
01:05
Six years in Spain, I think I learned so many things
01:07
and I have done so many things in European football.
01:10
And making this kind of advice in my career,
01:13
I think is the most important thing for me.
01:15
And I think I can't wait to start playing here
01:18
because I think here I can develop me more.
01:20
And I think I can't wait to hear the fans chant.
01:23
That's the most important thing I've been waiting for.
01:25
We joke about it since the last time we first started calling
01:28
and he said, someone, AC Miller, he said,
01:30
"You're a very nice club, it's a best club.
01:32
"Don't hesitate to sign with them.
01:34
"They are fantastic.
01:35
"They have good people and their fans is amazing."
01:37
I said, "So tell me more about it.
01:39
"How do you feel when you're playing against them?"
01:41
He said, "Their fans are amazing.
01:43
"They are crazy about football and everything."
01:45
I said, "Okay, no problem."
01:46
I said, "But don't worry.
01:48
"I hope you know I'm gonna win you."
01:50
He said, "Let's see how you go."
01:52
So we just joke about it.
01:53
He's a good guy.
01:54
He told me, he was the major role
01:56
that told me to sign for AC Miller.
01:58
Because he said I should come to Italy.
02:00
I can't wait to meet them in person
02:04
and I can't wait to see them
02:05
because I think they're amazing people
02:07
and I've seen them play
02:08
and I can't wait to play with them.
02:10
I think they can make me to be more better.
02:12
Because seeing them playing in European competitions
02:15
and everything, I think they seem perfectly good
02:17
and I think they can help the team also
02:20
because signing them is most important
02:22
for the club and for everything, I think.
02:24
- When I was a child, it was only Ricardo Kaka.
02:28
(laughs)
02:29
Only when the Champions League against Manchester United
02:33
and the way he touched the ball with his head
02:35
and defended the chance, that was amazing.
02:38
So I think Ricardo Kaka was one of the best players
02:42
I loved in AC Miller because he was fantastic.
02:44
He was good, actually.
02:46
But when I watched some of his clips on YouTube,
02:49
I saw all the amazing things in him.
02:51
He was in AC Miller's shirt.
02:52
I think he's an amazing player.
02:54
Then I played with Baka, that played in AC Miller
02:57
and also because he played in Villarreal also.
02:59
So I contacted him to ask him about the club
03:01
and everything.
03:02
He told me, "They're amazing. They're nice."
03:04
So I saw many players because I really love AC Miller.
03:08
I think it's an amazing club.
03:10
They're a history club also.
03:12
So I asked them and they told me, "It's fantastic.
03:16
You should make a move for it."
03:17
When I was growing up,
03:21
it was a little bit difficult in Africa.
03:24
Africa is where you have to work hard
03:26
to show everything, working hard to come to Europe
03:29
so that you develop your talent and everything.
03:31
In Africa, you have to do so many things
03:34
to become who you are today.
03:35
So in Africa, developing talent and everything
03:39
was very hard.
03:40
But through the hard work and everything,
03:42
and God's grace and everything,
03:44
I think everything worked perfectly fine
03:46
and it makes me do it because there are so many obstacles
03:50
for me to become what I am today.
03:52
Obstacles from Africa, from Europe and everything.
03:55
But today, it wasn't easy.
03:58
My mum said, "I love you to play football."
04:00
And I said, "Why?"
04:01
You know, African mothers, they don't want to hear.
04:03
They don't believe you have to study and everything.
04:05
But things change.
04:07
You know, when God said that this is your destiny
04:09
and this is your destiny, things change.
04:11
My mum bought my boots and everything.
04:14
But last night, he believed in football.
04:16
He trusts the process.
04:18
You know, before, he doesn't trust the process,
04:20
but now he trusts the process.
04:21
I love to play in the right wing.
04:25
It's the most important place.
04:27
When I watch Ajan Robin and everything,
04:29
because he's my idol, I watch him so much
04:31
because I watch his YouTube clip and everything.
04:33
He's a fantastic player.
04:35
He cuts in his shoot, he crosses, he's so fast.
04:38
He can dribble anybody he wants to dribble.
04:40
So I watch so many of his clips
04:42
because he's so fantastic and he's good.
04:44
That's a player I always love to watch.
04:46
Although injury-kissing, but he's a fantastic player.
04:50
I don't like stress, but I love being on my own.
04:53
I love making friends also.
04:55
I love travelling.
04:56
That's the most important thing, to travel, to see cities,
04:58
to see something new.
04:59
I love to taste so many food, you know.
05:01
I love food.
05:02
That's the most important thing.
05:03
I love to taste food and taste so many foods.
05:06
I hope I will taste so many Italian restaurants
05:09
and taste their food.
05:10
That's the only thing I love to do.
05:12
I'm actually a cool guy, humble.
05:14
I'm hard-working.
05:15
That's the most important thing.
05:17
Hard-working, but inside the pitch, he's focused.
05:20
Outside the pitch, he just jokes around.
05:22
But inside the pitch, he's patient.
05:23
That's what makes you a leader.
05:26
Hi, Arizona.
05:30
I can't wait to see you guys in San Siro.
05:32
I can't wait to hear you people chant and chant my name also.
05:36
I can't wait to score so many goals in San Siro Stadium
05:39
and in the AC Milan shirt.
05:41
See you guys soon.
