There was a coach there who yelled at me very hard during the first training sessions. I said I don't want to play anymore. I left and after some time just played with friends in the yard, and a year later I came back. Still, I realized that I can’t live without football and I want to do as much as possible.
I was lucky to work in the academy with so many good coaches who believed in me and gave me freedom of action. That is why I was able to show my best skills and thanks to them I became a footballer who is not afraid to take responsibility, ”Mudrik said in an interview for the Champions League magazine.
