I will talk to the medical team, with the doctors. I will have a special treatment because I haven't played for some time. But I hope I will play as soon as possible.
A very good impression, I have already met some good people, I can see the smiles, the world is happy and even the city is a beautiful one, many people, many young people, living life and being happy, I really like it!
What I can bring to the locker room is the desire to win each match, to always give 100% in training, to work hard and even if you have worse moments, you need to know that it is football, you will continue to learn and you have to give everything to win, that matters the most.
I called Karlo Muhar and he told me: «Please, come on, you will love the club, you will love the city, you will love people, everything is good in terms of the city and about life here. Just come and you will see, I will be here to help you ». Thank you! ”Kurt Zouma said at his first interview in the shirt of CFR Cluj.
