OK, let him think about it. Then he will let us know what he wants to do. He has played a lot, but he wants more, OK. So let him think about it. And when he has finished thinking about it, he will let us know”.

After the victory against Ukraine with Argentina at the 2024 Olympic Games, the Argentine striker took the floor to respond to his coach’s comment: “I heard what Pep said, but I don’t have much to say about it. I never said anything bad, I just said that I would think about it as I do every season, because I make an analysis of the last season and a projection of the one that could come. I always say that I feel good at City and I’m happy, it’s a great club and I didn’t say anything bad”, the words of The Araña collected by TyC Sports.
