“Behaving well on and off the pitch is important,” he said, according to TMW. “It also means being an example for teammates and fans.

“It was a special season without the fans in the stadium, I never thought it would happen during my career.

“We have missed our fans a lot, but we have always felt close to them. We hope to see them again at the stadium soon.”
