In which aspect are you not a model?
In the field of professional football, I strive to be a model. But I don't know, maybe it's nutritional, and while I know it's very important, I don't give it extreme attention like others do. Of course, I have a regular diet, but I don’t have to go crazy about it. The kind of release I talked about before is important. If one day I want to have a huge burger, I will eat it.
Do you like yourself the same level as people like you?
Oh! This question is asked! I think a person must like himself 110% because if a person is not satisfied with himself, problems will arise. If you don't love yourself, you can't show your best self.
How does it feel to be a Golden Globe winner?
Yes, but not everything is cool, huh? Indeed, it changed my life because I never dreamed of winning a prize, but…it lifted you to the level of a star. A midfielder is never usually given a star role, and this award, on the media level, puts you in the spotlight. It changes the way people see you. You go from a great player to a superstar. And this kind of leap is inconsistent with my personality. So I said not everything is cool. But, be careful! Winning it is wonderful and impressive in itself.
Do you have a premonition that you are going to retire?
I also think I am young, let's see how I develop. I think my career has just passed halfway through. Finally, there is a genetic problem. I'm a big guy! How do I know! I see Modric at 40 and I can't imagine that I can reach Modric's level at 40. Anyway, I think this injury, this year's rest, will help extend my career.
