00:01Well, Demola, you've been a half a year in Atletico.
00:08What is the most impressive thing about Atletico Madrid in these six months?
00:19I think our fan base, I think every match there's about 65-70 thousand people there,
00:30chairing the atmosphere and the people and the power behind the stadium is incredible.
00:39I've not seen anything like it before and I think that's what's special about Atletico.
00:46Do you feel it's a different club when you're inside?
00:50Do you feel it's a different club when you're inside?
00:53I think I always knew about Atletico being a family club, about having the people behind it,
01:03about the people loving the club, you know, the kids and how they really love Atletico.
01:11But obviously being there and being able to see it with my own eyes is something different, you know.
01:17And to experience that, yeah, it's a lot more special than seeing it from, you know, the outside.
01:24But obviously being there now is more special.
01:37When you play your first game, you score against Betis, what do you remember about that day?
01:45It was a special.
01:46Yeah, no, I think, yeah, it was great because obviously we travelled on the day and I think we were
01:59received by loads of fans in Betis.
02:03And I thought, wow.
02:04Sevilla?
02:05Yeah, in Sevilla.
02:06And I was, you know, taken aback by how many people were at the airport waiting for us.
02:11And it was, you know, it was an eye-opener for me in terms of, you know, the support and
02:17the people behind us
02:18and how much, you know, it means to the people.
02:22And for me, that gave me a lot of, you know, power and willingness because it's like, you know,
02:32they've travelled away from Madrid to come and support us in Sevilla.
02:36And, you know, they want us to win and the power behind that.
02:40You know, it was a pleasure to play that game, you know, to represent Atletico.
02:44I think that's the impression that we had with our aficionados.
02:48I mean, that's the first time we got to Sevilla.
02:50It gave me a lot of strength.
02:52This is your second year.
02:54People are waiting for you a lot.
02:56The first year, you've scored goals.
02:58You've been good.
02:59But this second year has to be a better look.
03:02It's your second year.
03:04Fans are expecting a lot more for you because you scored goals last season.
03:09But, well, this could be your big season.
03:13Yeah, no, listen, I've been working towards that.
03:17I think I've had a good introduction the past six months.
03:22You know, I've been here and I've settled here now, I think, in the group and in the squad.
03:28And I'm very settled in the city of Madrid.
03:31So, yeah, it's a big season for us, for me.
03:36And, you know, just to do our best is just the most important.
03:39To give everything that we can, give everything that I can.
03:42And, yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
03:44Yeah, we're very excited.
03:45We're hoping that it's going to be a great season.
03:47Do you have a goal?
03:48Are you a footballer who marks goals?
03:51Have you always been like that?
03:52Or have you had a special relationship with the goal in the Athletic?
03:56Do you expect to mark a lot of goals?
03:57Do you score goals in Spain?
04:00Is it like if you have a gift, it would be in all your career?
04:07I think, yeah, I've always liked to score goals.
04:12I've always known how to score goals.
04:14And I think that, you know, having more experience now, I'm able to, you know, understand the game a lot
04:24better.
04:25My game has evolved as it developed into a different way.
04:28And, you know, our style of football allows me to, you know, be close to the box, be in the
04:34mix,
04:34be able to create chances, be able to score goals.
04:37So, you know, yeah, it's a pleasure to do so.
04:40This is what I like to do.
04:42That's what I like to do.
04:42Yes, you've always had that relationship,
04:44but you know that he's close to the area,
04:46and he gives you the opportunity to, well,
04:47that everyone likes to be close to the goal and to mark it.
04:50You've come from Hulman, Kang Lee, Grimaldo.
04:55Yes.
04:56Are you ambitious?
04:57Can you aspire to everything to fight against Real Madrid and Barcelona?
05:02Are you ambitious?
05:03You know, we have now Kang Lee, Giroman, also Grimaldo.
05:08Are you ambitious about the system?
05:10It could be possible to fight against the biggest?
05:13I think, listen, we've signed some incredible players with a lot of talent.
05:20And, of course, the club has shown the ambition that they want to compete.
05:24And for us, we want to compete as players, you know, because that's what we had to do.
05:29We want to work hard every single day and we want to compete.
05:33We want to, you know, we want to strive to win.
05:36But winning is the most important, you know.
05:38There's no doubt about that.
05:41And, you know, we're working towards that, so that's positive.
05:45And I think that they all have different characteristics, all great characteristics.
05:48That's why they're here, to represent the club.
05:51And, you know, for them, of course, it's going to be a big year for them as well.
05:55So, yeah, we're all looking forward to representing.
05:58And what are the players you've got to know?
06:01And what are the players you're making?
06:03I don't know.
06:07What does the players you have to know?
06:08Why?
06:12He has a quality that..
06:18That's..
06:18I don't know.
06:20It's indescribable, you know.
06:24His touch, his way to pass, his decision-making, yeah, it's special.
06:32It's a guy who can run for, I don't know, two, three hours.
06:39But, you know, the quality that he possesses, you know, you can see he's a real midfielder, you know, he's
06:45a proper player.
06:48The aficion del atlético says, Ademola, Mola.
06:53Yes, yes.
06:54Do you like it?
06:55Yes, yes.
06:56Before I came, I didn't obviously know Mola, it means cool.
07:00So, you know, to have, you know, my name is Ademola.
07:03And obviously, you know, have this phrase now, have this saying now, it's pretty cool.
07:08If I tell you to win Liga, Champions, Copa, what do you want?
07:12I'll give you one.
07:13If you want to win Champions, Liga or Copa, what would you prefer?
07:20If you want to choose just one.
07:21I can't choose just one.
07:23I think they all mean, you know, I think to get far in any competition means a lot, you know,
07:30to be able to get there.
07:32And we were there last year, we got to the final of the Cup and we got to the semifinals
07:37of the Champions League.
07:38So, you know, we are there, we're there and we're thereabouts.
07:42So, for me, I can't just choose one.
07:45But, you know, for us to be close to these titles is important because it shows where we are in
07:56the world.
07:57Okay.
07:58I want to give you a message in Spanish to the athletes.
08:02What do you say to the athletes?
08:04Always, I hope.
08:05Always.
