When I was a child I had a dream to become a football player. I always played as I played when I was a child. I tried to improve. I never dreamt of becoming a professional football player, I dreamed just to play with the best players in the best team. I never dreamed to be paid to play. I would have paid to play an FA Cup Final in front of 80,000 people in Wembley. I just tried to play the wonderful game that football is. So, I hope young players will still have this dream.

I live to feel myself in danger.

I am searching for abstract ways of expressing reality, abstract forms that will enlighten my own mystery.

I started beach football in Monte Carlo when I retired from football in 1997. I liked the game very much.

Great businessmen are creators.

Football lost its excitement for me.
