This summer, former Manchester United youth training midfielder Angel Gomez and Lille have expired and are about to transfer to Marseille freely. During this period, he accepted an exclusive interview with the BBC and talked about his experience of playing for Manchester United and other teams.

Talking about Manchester United's youth training years

Angel Gomez: From the moment you step into the Carrington base, the coaches will tell you the history of the club and the story of Busby Baby. They will show you photos of George Best and Bobby Charlton. This cultural influence began very early. You know everything about the club and its symbolism. This inheritance will be integrated into your blood.

On Manchester United Academic Training Academy only allows black sneakers

Angel Gomez: When playing against other teams, you see your opponent wearing your dream colored boots because your idols are wearing colored boots, but in retrospect, this rule is perfect because they want to keep everyone equal.

Talking about my father and godfather Nani

Angel Gomez: My family always supported me when I was growing up, but the conversations with Nani and my father were particularly special because I knew they had really experienced all this. When I visited Nani's house, I observed his lifestyle, dealing with people, and behaviors off the field. Now, in retrospect, these have had a deep impact on me.

Talking about the training intensity of Manchester United's first team

Angel Gomez: At the age of 16, I trained with Rooney, Carrick, Mata and Herrera, and trained with these stars in the FIFA game. It felt too unreal, and it was difficult to realize immediately that I was one of them. I remember hearing in the youth training camp: Can you catch the ball steadily when Carrick passes it to you?

Speaking of Manchester United jersey weight and pressure

Angel Gomez did not fully agree with the statement that "only one can only play without the pressure of Manchester United jersey". He said: "Maybe for some people, some players may be shocked by pressure, or do not understand the weight of jerseys. But in the final analysis, environment, timing and supporting support are the key. Some players who perform better after leaving the team are precisely because they have obtained the right growth conditions in the new club. Success or failure cannot be simply attributed to 'can't bear the weight of jersey'."

Speaking of leaving Manchester United

Angel Gomez: This is obviously a difficult process. Too many factors have to stay, but I have to make the right decision for my career, and I sacrifice a lot for it.

Talking about Lille's career

Angel Gomez: Leaving England is difficult but it is a brand new look. Staying away from the spotlight in the past few years has made me focus on growing.

Talking about 1.68 meters tall and position on the field

Angel Gomez: I have to constantly explain this since I was a child, and I had to rely on other advantages. When asked about the position, I said that I am an all-round midfielder: I can play No. 6, No. 8 or No. 10. When playing football in Portugal, even play on the left, pseudo-9 or right. You can adapt to any corner of the court. I am delicate in my skills, keen on ball control, and good at connecting and responding to the whole game. Paul Scholes has similar traits. Thiago and Deco, all-around midfielders who do not distinguish between positions, are my role models.

On the recruitment of England

Angel Gomez: It was very hurt to hear the argument that 'referred to be selected by relationship', because I know that the fact is definitely not the case. Southgate mentioned me at the press conference before the last European Cup. Once I received a pre-trial notice for training and thought the joke was forwarded to Casley. He confirmed the authenticity and the selection was entirely due to his own efforts.

The Talk has not been recruited by Tuchel yet

Angel Gomez: We have had video calls and information exchanges, and Coach Tuchel continues to pay attention to my performance. This kind of communication relationship is great. Not being included in the new issue list will inspire me to continue working hard. Contesting in the World Cup is the ultimate goal, and I know what needs to be done to achieve it.
