You moved to Lazio in the Serie A, which was, I mean, the Serie A was the best league in the world at that time. And then you went to a top side in the Serie A, Lazio. Could you tell us a little bit about how that transfer came about and why you decided to reject Man United at that time to sign for Lazio?
Speaker: So I certainly didn't reject United. People representing me at the time said, no, listen here, we've got Man United and Latio are interested. And we said, okay, we'll go and meet with both of them. And we went first to Man United, watched the Man United against Everton, mixed with Alex Ferguson in his office after the game. We didn't say no, we just said we had an obligation to go to Latio as well. And then we went to Latio, ZXM1 wanted to sign me. Latio wanted to sign me. And next minute I found myself happy.
Speaker: having an eight -hour medical. Again, I would have no regrets. Some people always ask me, do I have regrets not going to Man United? I certainly don't, because you said that there. You said, you know, the Serie A was the best league in the world at the time. So, and as a defender, there's no better place to go to improve your trade. So, certainly no regrets.
