Diego Forlan

I went to Japan to experience a new culture, and I would recommend that any footballer does that. But the main reason I went was to play football. ”

I played 112 times for Uruguay and experienced some of the greatest moments in my life representing my country. ”

I try to go through my life not owing anything to anyone. ”

I'd be happy to play in Sao Paulo. It would be a dream; that would be very exciting. ”

The Italian Fabio Cannavaro, who was with Real Madrid when I played against him several times, was the best player in the world in 2006. He wasn't tall, but very quick and strong. He always knew his opponents well, as if he'd researched them. ”

There are games when you do well, and others that go differently. ”

I keep really fit. ”

Although I will not always play well, I always give everything on the pitch. ”

I try to see the positive side of things. ”

I am very happy here at Atletico, and I want to bring the same kind of joy to all the fans. ”
