He recalled, "It was due to a little on the lack of maturity and a little on the confidence. When you arrive from the youth academy it is normal that the club does not bet so much on you; then I had two great seasons at Dortmund and I had to decide what to do, since Real still didn't consider me.

"I knew I could play at high levels; when Inter bought me, Real had an option but didn't exercise it.

"I'm happy that other big clubs have invested in of me."
