Jorgensen: The first jersey is Casey but my idol is Neuer; my first team is called Nike
Chelsea goalkeeper Philippe Jorgensen talked about a series of topics for the "first time" in his football career in an interview with the club's official media.
First jersey you owned?
"That's Casillas' Real Madrid jersey, the green one. Casillas was one of the players I looked up to as a kid, but my real idol was Manuel Neuer. However, I remember it clearly, that jersey was my childhood favorite."
Your first team?
"There's a team in the Swedish town of Lönma, called 'Nike'. Yes, it's spelled the same as Chelsea's jersey brand, but we pronounce it 'Nike'."
Your first coach?
"I can't remember the coaches when I was playing at Lomma Town, but I remember some of the coaches when I was playing at Malmö. For example, two of them, one was named Sam Ali. They were very strict, straightforward, and always honest, which is what I needed."
Your first roommate?
"When I turned professional at Villarreal, I shared a room with Norwegian striker Alexander Soros, who played for Crystal Palace. We would stay in the hotel before Villarreal home games and the two of us would always live together. We don't see each other much now, but we still keep in touch occasionally."
Your debut?
"That was when I was 19 years old, playing for Villarreal in the Copa del Rey against a team called Atletico San Lucno. Although it might not have been the best debut, I got through it and we ended up winning the game 7-1.
"Unfortunately, I came on as a substitute with 30 minutes left in the game and the opponent scored a goal right away, but it didn't affect the final result. The team's plan at that time was to let me make my debut as a substitute in this game. "
The first time you were recognized in public?
"When I was in Villarreal, I don't remember exactly. But when I started getting recognized, it felt great. "
What's your first feeling after signing for Chelsea?
"Happy! I'm very, very happy. This is a huge leap forward in my career and I'm just happy for myself, my family and everyone around me, just pure happiness. "
