“I looked at a lot of football with my growing brothers,” said Hungary international. “I used to watch [Steven] Gerrard, I used to watch [John] Arne Rise, Robbo [Andy Robertson] And Ronaldo when he played.
“I have always let my brothers choose the figures where I go to different teams. They said that I knew Arne Riise at six, I told them, they saw that too, so they said that six was a good number to continue.
“We are all close. It’s normal, they have always been with me since the first day. I am the youngest in the family, so they always say that the youngest do it the furthest! They pushed me a lot and I am always grateful to my brothers and my family. ”
