He can't speak English and can only communicate  with the ones who are French-speakers or Spanish, so for him it'll be  step by step and that's why I gave him more than 45 minutes."I wanted to give him more minutes because he needs to play more than others. He needs to feel it and start communicating."I will give him everything to try to make him better and better,  like I did with other central defenders I’ve had in my hands. Like, for  example, Varane, and I will try to make him the best I can."He's shown the potential we saw when we decided to buy him. He has the potential to become one of the best around."</blockquote>
