Interview mit Sancho. Erschien zu Beginn der Länderspielphase, war hier meine ich noch nicht.

Behandelt alle möglichen Themen, u.a. den BVB. Aber vor allem wie er es geschafft hat dort unten rauszukommen, wie schwer das Leben in seiner Kindheit in dem Viertel war, die Nationalmannschaft und seinen Fußball.
Insgesamt sehr lang und etwas sprunghaft.

---------------------------

Zu seinem Problem mit der Punktlichkeit sagte er

"How would you describe yourself now then? You’re confident on the pitch, but how are you off it?"

- "In Germany there’s a few things that I still need to work on. Sometimes I’m late to training and it’s things like this that I need to work on, because I have a sleep problem. Little things like that, where I need to be a little more professional and put things right. But I’m working on it and the club’s helping me and the team is helping me. Slowly but surely, as I get older, I feel like I’m learning new things. People do say that I’m very mature for my age. I guess leaving home and learning things for myself has helped with that."

....

"Do you think if you stay at a club and play under 23s that your career is sort of on hold?

- No, not at all. It’s about patience. You can’t rush things. Everything happens for a reason. If it was meant to be this year that I broke through, then I’d be more than happy. I’m still young at the end of the day. But obviously I was lucky enough that I had the coaches that had faith in me, and they took a chance. The last few years have gone so quick for me and I’m enjoying the journey."
