Gerard Deulofeu

“When I came to Barcelona, I knew - I knew Neymar, Messi, and Suarez were in the team.”

“At Barca B, I played No. 9 and think I played well.”

“I am trying to improve the defensive side of my game and become an all-round wide-player, but my USP is that I am an attacking winger that takes players on, commits opponents, and excites fans. I think we are an increasingly rare breed.”

“There is absolutely no chance of me going back to Barcelona. They don't want me to, and I don't want to, either.”

“At Barcelona, there is always talk of signings, but I want to compete with the best.”

“I prefer scoring goals, but when I am playing out on the right, I tend to come inside and provide assists, but I also like playing on the left, and I think if that is where I play, then I will have more chance of scoring - but I just hope I can help the team score goals with my assists.”

“I've come to Milan because I think I can play; otherwise, I wouldn't have come here. I'm pleased they were interested in me.”

“Barca are the favourites because they have a better team and have the best player in the world, who is Messi.”

“I do not want to live more from the past. I have my present and a great future that is on the other side.”

“It is nice to hear things said about you, but if I was to stay at Milan, then I'd be happy. It is a great club.”

“If we in Spain had fans like in England, it would be the best League without doubt. And the live football, in the stadiums, the people live for it.”

“There is only one Messi.”

“Obviously, training at Barcelona is a fantastic experience. You train alongside players like Lionel Messi and Andres Iniesta, who are clearly some of the best players in the world.”

“I left Barcelona because I believed it was very difficult to have minutes in the first team, as there are very good players.”

“Milan are the most glorious Italian club.”

“I'm not someone who moans.”

“I like a little pressure. That's how football goes.”

“I need to be a first-team player.”

“England's very different. I was at Barcelona for 10 years, and it's another world.”

“You have to believe in your dreams every day, work hard in training, and - above all - listen to the advice of the manager and your parents.”
