When a young player wants to achieve his/her dream of playing professional football, sacrifices must be made. The player’s family will almost do everything to help their child achieve their dreams. For Bayern Munich’s young left-back Adam Aznou, it’s pretty much the same.
“Since I was little, my father has always helped me with everything; he took me everywhere, and thanks to him, I started playing football, for which I am very grateful,” Aznou said (as captured by Twitter account @Lions_talk). “My mother has always been there for everything I needed. I come from a humble and hard-working family, and I than Allah for being able to make them happy.”
The 18-year-old FC Barcelona product also cited fellow wide defender Achraf Hakimi from Paris Saint-Germain as an “older brother kind of figure“; Hakimi helped him settle in with the national team. “My brother Achraf, haha, he has helped me since day one,” Aznou said. “When the list came out, he sent me a message congratulating me, and that was very nice of him. He is a really good person and a great captain, and it’s clear.”
