Following Real Madrid’s 2-1 victory over Ferencváros in Budapest, captain Federico Valverde offered insights into his initial period training under the guidance of José Mourinho. Valverde expressed that the Portuguese coach has been a surprising and positive influence on his personal experience. “I like that he is here with us, and I am actively trying to learn from him,” Valverde stated.
He emphasized his commitment to maximizing every training session. “As I mentioned in a previous interview, I aim to benefit as much as possible from every day I train with him and his staff. Overall, the atmosphere is positive, and we are all working very well together,” he added.
Beyond the coaching dynamic, the Uruguayan also addressed the increased responsibility associated with assuming the role of the team’s primary captain, a position he has not held previously, having served in secondary captain capacities. Regarding this new status, Valverde acknowledged the weight of the commitment. “It is certainly a significant responsibility.
It is a role that I really like, and for which I feel extraordinarily honored and proud,” he commented. He concluded by reflecting on his ongoing development, stating, “I have learned a considerable amount, and I continue to learn every day.” The statements highlight Valverde’s focus on continuous improvement both professionally and within the team structure under Mourinho’s leadership.
