00:00It's been an incredible year.
00:02I've played for Barça's first team,
00:04and I've won the European Championship
00:06and the Olympic Games.
00:08To be there on the podium,
00:10to receive the medals
00:12representing Spain,
00:14well,
00:16those are unforgettable moments
00:18and I'll never forget them.
00:20My family.
00:22Whenever these things happen to me,
00:24we see everything we've been through,
00:26the journey we've had to make
00:28to be here,
00:30and the truth is
00:32that I admire everything
00:34they've done for me
00:36and I'm very happy to achieve these things
00:38and that they can enjoy it.
00:40The club wanted me to stay at Barça D,
00:42and I told the club
00:44that maybe I'd like to take it a step further.
00:46I went to the first week,
00:48Xavi, the coach,
00:50took a liking to me.
00:52He gave me opportunities,
00:54I tried to take advantage of them
00:56until I became a first-team player.
01:00At the end of the day,
01:02you always have to face up
01:04when the first team needs you,
01:06and I think that now
01:08a very good generation is coming
01:10and hopefully we can achieve
01:12great success in the club.
01:14My first year at Barça D
01:16is to achieve all these things,
01:18to be in the first team of Barça,
01:20to get into the national team,
01:22and to keep working and fighting.
