“I want to be part of every game. But I knew that wasn’t possible for me, so I tried to make the best of the treatments, the recovery.

“This is how I feel. It was eight weeks pretty much working double sessions every day, sometimes three sessions, so it was really hard for me.
“And, of course, seeing the team fighting for titles, I have a lot of desire to be part of that, to be part of that fight. Thank God I am here and I am looking forward to the rest of the season.”
