- “Fernando’s announcement was a surprise for all of us. He’s not playing as much as he would like so if he has taken that decission is because he has been thinking about it for a long time. He’s going to keep on working, there’s still some matches left and he’s going to wish the best for the team, now, and when he’s not here anymore, as a fan.”
- “He has never questioned anybody, he has never pulled a face towards anybody, there’s nothing to reproach to him or Simeone. There has not been a bad relationship between them, it has been a professional relationship.”
- “We lose a symbol, he has been everything for Atleti. As a professional he’s a 10/10 but as a teammate he’s a 1000. When he came back to Atleti I was nervous because Torres, an idol for me, was coming. He will be in a Metropolitano seat cheering for us from now on.”
- “It’s a shame that he’s not going to end his career at Atleti but it’s his decission and we have to respect it and support him. If he has done it this way, it’s because he has wanted to do it like this. We have to support him in the time he’s going to be here, and I hope he can win a title with Atleti.”
