On the experience of his first year in professional football:

«Yes, everything has started early for me. It’s something that I wanted, something I have worked hard for. I’ve been in the first team for half a year now and I keep working hard to get to play with the first team squad.»

On his future dreams:

«My next goal is to improve. My main objective is also to get more games under my belt, to be a player who can be counted on and to be ready to give my all.»

On the the differences of being in the PAOK first time versus the Under-19s:

«Everything is different. It’s important that I have been included in the first team from a young age and have the chance to work with teammates such as Varela, and Kagawa. I take examples from these players, their mentality, and their professionalism.»

On Pablo Garcia:

«It is important that I knew him from the Under-19s. He had promoted me from the Under-17s, and he had helped establish me as a key player. It is important for me, not only for the youngsters, but also for the whole team, as we can express ourselves much more freely.»

On if he dreams of scoring his first goal:

«I’m looking for it, I want it. As a striker I feed off and live for goals, and so I really want to score.»

On the fact that the team did not play a mid-week game:

«It helped that we did not have a game on Wednesday. But still both the championship and the cup are important for us. We always go for the victory and it is good that we managed to get a littlke rest to take a breather so that we can give it our all against Lamia.»

On the game with Lamia:

«It will be difficult, everything is difficult in hte league. If you do not give 100% and you are not focused, then you get in trouble. We need to be focused to finish the chances we create and if we do that everything will be fine.»
