Albiol: If I had stayed at Real Madrid, I might have had 4 Champions Leagues, but I want to play football

. You will feel the grand pattern of this team and its size is very large. Of course, the team was also full of hope for a great season at the time. But to be honest, we failed to win any championship in the end. We performed well in the league, but that wasn't enough to win the championship. But for me, that first season was a very good experience. ”

In Naples, have you experienced the peak moments of your career?

Albiol: "I experienced growth as a player there, and that's true. In Naples, I became a better player and grew up to be a better defender. I think those years were my time to learn and improve. I also have a deeper understanding of the game, understanding the concepts and a lot of things in the game. I feel that my six seasons in Naples have made great progress in my skills. ”

After 21 years of career, what motivates you to try to play for at least another season?

Albiol: "What motivates me is my love for the sport. I have enthusiasm, I have the desire to compete, and I have the desire to win. I feel good in good health and in good spirits. So when it feels so good, choosing to stop is also difficult. Obviously, I will have to stop. But I believe my moment has not come yet. So to this day, I can't say to you like, 'I should retire'. ”

Until last December, you were playing all the games for Villarreal. What can you bring to the team that wants to sign yours?

Albiol: "I can bring experience, competitiveness, a spirit of aspiration to achieve important goals and strive for them." It depends on what kind of goal, but I have the ability to help any team. As I said, I feel good, I was fully involved in the first half of the league last season and I was in good shape. So, well, this is somewhat an example to prove that I am ready. Later, it was indeed due to a specific situation that I was unable to participate in the second half. But as I said, I am ready for a new goal and hopefully we can find this ‘new goal’. ”
