I am a follower of the Spain team. I think I did things correct, with the greatest honesty, always under the premise that I would say yes to Real Madrid.
Spain have got a big influence from Real Madrid and Barcelona, and when you watch Spain play, it's almost like watching Barcelona or Real Madrid at times.
I always say that I need competition, and I need competition every week, and in Spain, I was at an amazing club, but I had four matches a year: Barcelona v Real Madrid, Real Madrid v Barcelona, and after that, we'd win 4-0, 5-0, 4-1, 6-1.
Barcelona or Real Madrid, I think I would say yes to playing for these teams.
I am very proud to be a part of Real Madrid, the greatest team in the world.
Juventus in Italy are like Real Madrid in Spain, when you enter the team it feels different.
When I was younger, I had some close friends who always loved European football, and Real Madrid at that time were the dominant force. I remember family holidays when we used to go to Spain, and we'd bring back replica shirts of Real Madrid and pretend to be the players when we played in the park.
Real Madrid are Real Madrid, and any player would want to be at Real Madrid. Why would I want to leave Real Madrid? I wanted to play, nothing else.
I'll never play in Barcelona, because in Spain I am a Real Madrid supporter.
I know from my Real Madrid team-mates Mesut Ozil and Sami Khedira and my family in Andalucia that people look up to me in Spain.
When I was sold from Real Madrid to Inter, I would have preferred to have remained in Spain.
I would like Ajax to be people's favourite second team. Like in Spain, if you are a Real Madrid fan, then you can't be a Barcelona supporter. It's the same in Italy. But you can be an Ajax fan.
I never played in Spain. To play for Real Madrid or Barcelona would be great.
In a team like Real Madrid, arguments always arise when things are not going well.
I said yes to Real Madrid while keeping my responsibility to the national team. I was completely honest.
Yes, the national team is all one team. We are not Real Madrid players, Barcelona players, Celta Vigo players... all of us are a group.
Real Madrid? There is no agreement, but I promised my grandfather I would play there one day. Why wouldn't I want to discover new things? As I've said several times, I'd like to play in Spain and have good weather for once in my life!
