‘Football was once my priority, now it’s just my job’

Barcelona may be having a good run to this point of the season, with Gilles Coute having also played his part in the team’s playing image, but the Frenchman has made a revelation about himself that is contrary to expectations. feelings prevailing in the Blaugrana camp.

The Frenchman explained that he no longer loves football to the same extent as he did in the past, stressing that he now perceives it more as a job, as other interests entered his life.

The statements of the Catalan player in detail:

“I have many interests. I want my family to be safe. I would also like to help others. I’d be lying if I told you I love football as much as I used to. Once my football career was a priority, now it’s my job. When I started, my life off the pitch was secondary.”

Of course, Koude explained that the effort to improve on the grass does not stop, even if he competes in a different position, as has been the case lately.

“Sometimes people don’t understand that we have our own criteria and goals in a game. I’m the one who knows best what I’m capable of doing on a pitch.

In my case, when I play full back I get judged for things that are not my strengths. I understand that I have changed position and that requires other things. I’m working on it.”
