I always thought I wanted to play professionally, and I always knew that to do that I'd have to make a lot of sacrifices.

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing. ↗

I feel as though we're living in a time where there is very little distinction paid between the personal and the professional. ↗
