Dro Fernandez gave an interview to the official Paris Saint-Germain website following his signing from FC Barcelona during this winter transfer window. The 18-year-old midfielder expressed his happiness and described his playing style.
Dro Fernandez: “This is a moment of great pride for me and my family.”
Dro, congratulations and welcome to Paris Saint-Germain! What are your first feelings?
“Thank you so much! I’m very happy, very excited. This is a moment of great pride for me and my family. I can’t wait to get started!”
After the FC Barcelona Youth Academy, it’s time for a new chapter in your career, at Paris Saint-Germain. How are you experiencing this?
“This is an important step. I made the decision to continue growing as a player, and I think there’s no better place than here to continue to grow.” “
Paris Saint-Germain has a young team and an ambitious project… Is that why you chose to join the club?
“That’s why I’m here. I think there’s no better place to grow, because the project they have with the young players here is incredible. It’s thanks to the coach and everyone who makes it possible. That’s why I’m here.”
Dro Fernandez: “I’m a creative player who likes to dictate the game.”
Can you describe yourself as a player and as a person?
“I’m a creative player who likes to dictate the game by making good decisions and enjoying myself. I’m a quiet, down-to-earth, very family-oriented guy who likes to be with my loved ones. I obviously enjoy spending time with my family. I’m calm and easygoing. I also like being alone, and with the people I love, but I’m a calm person.” “
Finally, a word for the Parisian fans?
“I’m really looking forward to seeing them and discovering the stadium! ‘This is Paris!’ (in French in the original text)”
Unsurprisingly, Dro Fernandez remains very reserved and focused on his family. He’s only just arrived in Paris at the tender age of 18, and we shouldn’t get carried away. The midfielder has immense potential that shouldn’t be wasted. We hope to see him refine his game and develop further. Having coach Luis Enrique and a team with a high level of collective skill should help him.
The most interesting thing will be to see him on the pitch, with the hoped-for creativity and the potential for a very successful career. Although, of course, it will probably require patience.
