“I would like to thank the fans for our constant support, and they are the reason for our presence in the Champions League final, and we hope to make them happy on Saturday,” the Belgian international said in statements carried by Real’s official website.
He added, “Our level has decreased recently and the heat is not helping, we wanted to maintain our rhythm without getting injured, and currently we are keen to do more physical training to enter the final in the best possible condition.”
He continued, “Now we have to rest this week before returning to training again, to get the highest degree of intensity we need for the final.”
