Victor, welcome to Liverpool. We have to start by saying congratulations because you arrive here as a World Cup winner. How does that feel? Has it sunk in yet, what you achieved earlier this summer?<\/p>\n
It was an unforgettable experience out there at the World Cup. It was something I had dreamed of from a very young age and to be honest, something I never thought I would experience in my life. However, I\u2019m very conscious that that is behind me now and I come here full of intention for Liverpool FC.<\/p>\n
It feels like your transfer was announced a long time ago now, but this is the first time we\u2019ve had chance to talk with you. How does it feel to be a Liverpool player?<\/p>\n
The truth is I feel very good. I had a great experience today with my teammates for the first time, they\u2019ve all been very helpful and several of those teammates set out for me in a very simple manner things like where to go, what we are going to do, how things work. And of course, I have had my first training session today with my teammates and the coach, and the class we had after the training session was very good and helpful also. So, I feel great. <\/p>\n
Your move here seemed to happen very quickly. Can you just explain how it unfolded from your point of view?<\/p>\n
Yeah, it was a very quick process. Obviously, when it arose I was out there at the World Cup with the Spain squad so I couldn\u2019t take any time away to come over to Liverpool to set things in stone here. But obviously I discussed it with my family and straight away there were no doubts that it was a great move for me. So, it went very, very quickly and I am very happy to be here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Victor, welcome to Liverpool.
