I haven’t seen him since his injury and I don’t want to talk to him right away because I know what state he might be in. I think there is no need to add more,
he explained. I’ll see him after the match, because I know it’s going to be very emotionally difficult for him and his family. But he is a young player who is progressing and who will, I am convinced, have other opportunities to relive this type of opportunity. »
