How does it feel representing your club at the ePL finals?

I have supported Leicester City since they won the Premier League, the ambition and passion they showed that year you don't see it often in football teams, I think that's what I have in common with the team. I have a lot of ambition and a lot of passion for the game. Representing this club is like a dream come true and I will give everything for the club.

If you could meet one current Leicester player, who would it be?

I'd like to meet Christian Fuchs, the owner of the team I'm playing for, I respect him very much. I talk to him a lot and he helps me every time with advice and he always encourages me, he's an example to all of us on the team.

Who's your favourite player in the game?

Pele '95 and Cristiano Ronaldo TOTY.

What's been the most exciting part of being part of the ePL?

I can represent a club as big and beautiful as Leicester and I will try to bring the trophy home for the fans because they really deserve another trophy for their support of the club.

What would it mean for you to win the ePL title?

It would mean that all my work has been rewarded and that would motivate me to win more trophies.
