“Since I arrived here, I started to win trophies with this amazing team, with this amazing group. I started to develop myself in many aspects in football, in my life.
“Also my family. Ray, the team manager, he told me once a sentence about the family – ‘Happy wife, happy life.’ My wife is really happy here, in England, she’s happy for my children, for myself, for herself as well.
“We found a purpose in our life here and I’m really, really happy to continue wearing this shirt.”
