35 appearances in 10 years, Vallejo: I also want to play more, but Real Madrid s level is too high

Vallejo left Real Madrid freely this summer to join Alvasett for the Segunda Division. The player was interviewed by the Assister at his new club, talked about his feelings about joining Alvasett and commented on his Real Madrid career.

Why choose Alvaset?

"Because I felt a very good atmosphere here, I visited more than two weeks ago and I am very satisfied with it. I have determined this choice since that day, and I believe it was the right decision."

were surprised by the sensation caused by this transfer?

"Yes, the club's publicity work is done very well. The fans in reality and on social media have expressed great enthusiasm and support to me, and I am very grateful for this. I have completed my debut and everything is going well at the moment."

Are you here with a mentality of reproving yourself?

"I prefer to say that I came with the feeling of enjoying football, but I care more about the past. I am full of expectations for the future and focus on it side by side."

Do you feel more stressed than others?

"I don't think it's stress, it's passion and desire. I've been perfectly integrated into the team since day one, my teammates accepted me very enthusiastically, and I hope to show my best self. As the beginning of a new journey, I felt the extra motivation."

Are you interested in taking on the role of team leader?

"I have a great respect for our captains, and everyone should be the leader at certain moments. At Real Madrid, I accepted the role assigned to me. But I am not satisfied with not playing games, I understand that, and I train with all my strength every day. In this sense, I consider myself a leader because I act in this way and face my situation." Is the goal an upgrade?

"Our goal is to make progress every day and move forward step by step. This level of game is very difficult, the season will be long, and we have to take one step at a time. In the end, football takes us to where we should."

Have you felt more love in the past few days than when I was at Real Madrid?

"It feels different, but at Real Madrid, I also feel the care of my teammates and fans. Although I don't have many opportunities to play, I have always had a good relationship with my fans and teammates. But since I came here, everyone has shown me incredible love, which gave me great energy and made me want to give my all."

How to evaluate my Real Madrid career?

"A learning experience, I have always tried my best to do my best, but the competition in the team is extremely fierce, and it can be said to be one of the most cruel competitions in the football world. I hope to have more opportunities to play, but the overall level of the team is too high."

Has changed anything in the past decade?

"I was too involved at the beginning. I suffered some unnecessary injuries due to over-zeal and eager to prove myself. But I was still young at that time and didn't understand the impact of this. Over time, I learned to better understand training load and emotional management, and these experiences taught me a lot."

Did Ancelotti not give you the attention you deserve?

"His position has always been under tremendous pressure and responsibility. He himself said that his task is not to allocate playing time, but to win games. This is his philosophy. He did not reuse me. Although I hope to have more opportunities to play, I always respect his decision."

Which teammate will give you the greatest spiritual support?

"Cavajal, from the first day I came to the team until the last day, he has been supporting me. He is an ideal teammate, very active, and has played an active role in every aspect. He is a natural leader, an ideal captain, and it is perfect for him to give the captain's armband to him." Is the same with Valverde?

"No doubt he is an extraordinary player, extremely competitive, and he is eager to participate in all competitions even with a slight muscle injury. This trait is his nature and will never change."

Which Real Madrid player has the best skills?

"Rodrigo, he showed amazing talent in training in a small space, fascinated me."

Is it better than Vinicius and Mbappe?

"He is really outstanding in this regard, with an impressive football talent."

Would it be a mistake if Real Madrid let him go?

"I don't want to talk too much about this, but Rodrigo has proved his worth and has been performing very stably. If he can return to his best condition, he will be an important player in Real Madrid in the next few years."

Talking about Modric

"He is a role model for everyone. Our physical coach Pintus often says that seeing the physical fitness and various indicators he showed during training and competitions made him unable to believe his eyes. He said that Modric's physiological functions are amazing, and he always arrived at the training base at the earliest, and he was extremely dedicated to his physical care. Therefore, it is no accident that he can maintain such an excellent state at such an age." Is the same in Ronaldo?

"When I came to Real Madrid, he left a very deep impression on me. I even tried to imitate some of his daily habits. He is very organized and self-disciplined, has extremely high requirements for himself, and knows how to allocate his energy reasonably. His 24 hours are the same as a professional player, and he has improved his professional spirit to the extreme."

Still support Real Madrid?

"Of course, I will become a loyal Real Madrid fan and have a chance to watch the game at the Bernabeu. I hope the team goes well and hope they will have greater success in the new chapter with Alonso."
