00:00 I think everyone has heard the news.
00:04 It's official, I'm going to be a Real Madrid player for the next five seasons.
00:09 It's a huge pleasure, a dream come true, a lot of emotions.
00:14 I'm very happy, relieved, and proud to be able to join this club where I've always dreamed of.
00:22 I'm very excited to be in this great club, the best in the world.
00:30 I'm coming here with a lot of humility.
00:33 I'd like to thank everyone who sent me messages, everyone who supported me.
00:39 I couldn't see everything, but my heart was there.
00:42 I'd also like to thank everyone who helped me in this operation, which was more than complex.
00:48 I'd like to thank everyone at Real Madrid, especially the president, Florentino Perez,
00:53 who has always trusted me from day one.
00:56 It's a big day for me.
00:58 There's a lot of emotions, but we need to get back to something more rational.
01:03 I have a responsibility as captain of the French team.
01:07 I think it's taken a lot of weight off the team.
01:11 I know it's not fair for you, I see a lot of faces, people who have come from far away.
01:17 Sometimes life is unfair, but I won't answer questions other than the national team.
01:22 I know it's not good, and I'm sorry, but I'd rather protect my national team,
01:27 because we have a big summer ahead of us.
01:30 We haven't won in a while, so we'll try to put all our weapons aside to win.
