The Costa Rican footballer gave his first statements to our club’s official website regarding his transfer to Apollon and his ambitions for the upcoming season. The 21-year-old right-back spoke about his goals, his experience so far, and explained why he chose Apollon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What does this transfer mean for your career?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This transfer is very important for my career. I have wanted this for a long time. To come to Europe, to play, and to do everything in the best way possible. It is a dream for me to play abroad.<\/p>\n

Why did you choose Apollon?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had several options, but I chose Apollon because I really liked the atmosphere, the stadium, and the people. After discussing with my representative, we felt that this was the best choice at this point.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What is your playing style and your main characteristics?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a defender, playing as a right-back and center-back. I focus a lot on physical fitness, running, overlapping, and tracking back. I believe I am strong in set pieces.<\/p>\n

What are your personal goals at Apollon?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I want to give my best. I want to do what I did in my previous team and achieve as much as possible. I want to play many matches and provide whatever the team needs to help it achieve its goals.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What do you expect to bring to Apollon?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had the opportunity to play in 130 matches over three or four years at Cartagin\u00e9s. I want to offer everything to the team. I have gained experience from a young age, won two trophies in Costa Rica, and participated in all national team categories. I want to contribute as much as I can.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you would like to add?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am very grateful to the team for giving me the opportunity to come here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
