Papu Gomez: “I’m staying another year in Seville. Atalanta? I would be surprised if … “

The Papu Gomez was one of the most important players in the history ofAtalanta. The Argentine, however, after some disagreements with the company e Gasperini decided last season to move to Seville in the January market. In this year he has made 39 appearances and 6 goals and has become one of the leaders of the Andalusians. In an interview with El Desmarquethe former Catania spoke about his present and his future, also in view of the match againstItaly by Roberto Mancini scheduled at Wembley. These are his words:

HERE I’M – “Will the future of Papu be in Seville? Yes, I think so, without a doubt. I don’t want to move from here, there is the World Cup and I want to respect my contract, and I want to stay at least one more year. I still have two years left,” so I think if Sevilla don’t chase me, Papu will be there for a while. I’m very happy, my family is super happy, we have a great time in the city and with the people. I was very impressed with the city, of which everyone they talked to me very well. The Argentines who passed through here spoke to me particularly about how they live here and I was able to verify it. The club proves to be constantly growing, now they are building a new sports center and for us it is a luxury and a pride in wearing this shirt and representing Sevilla. This is why it was so important to continue in the Champions League and continue to compete at this level. “

FUTURE – “A return to Argentina? The truth is that I still don’t know, I talk a lot about it with my wife. I really like being competitive and I have already been in the Ukrainian league for a year and I didn’t feel comfortable, even if financially it went. very good for me. There I realized that it’s not all about money. I don’t know what I would do, really. Maybe in a few years I could stop playing at the highest level and go to a lower division, but I don’t know if I would return to a challenging league like the Argentine one. In South America we run a lot, maybe I could try the MLS or something else, but if I’m physically well and I’m still able to play in an important championship like the Spanish or the Italian one, I could continue calmly ” .

ATALANTA AND CHALLENGE WITH ITALY – “I think Atalanta are criticized, but for five or six years they have accustomed us to an extraordinary level and have become an important team in Italy. It is surprising that this year they can stay out of everything. I wish them well and see what happens. . A former team-mate I would take to Sevilla? Ilicic, but he too has his problems. He is an extraordinary player. Challenge Italy? It seems that it is an official title, an important match for us. It is good for us to face teams. European championships, Italy is the last European champion, they have remained undefeated for many matches, it is a pity that they have been excluded from the World Cup. We want to win, remain undefeated, raise this trophy and get to the World Cup in the best possible way. there will be other friendlies, but it’s time to stay focused on the pitch and then we could rest. “
