“I tried to enjoy this period in my career. I always focus on the positive and on what truly benefits me and my family. If I allowed myself to feel undervalued, to complain, I might not have given my all, thinking about things that are beyond my control. I felt strong, calm, and I thank God that we created history… And what a history it is!

If I had to choose between Messi and Ronaldo, I think mainly because of the time I spent with them, I would choose Cristiano. He amazed me every day; I couldn’t believe it. He would say: 'Guys, don’t let them score, and I will score, and we will win.' And that was in the Champions League,” Navas said in an interview with TUDN.
