“I have good relations with Nasser, with whom I speak regularly. I knew because I collaborated with Al-Jazeera, and I was invited to Doha, where they showed me the plans of the 2022 World Cup. Paris St. Germain has approached me was released but I wanted to stay a second year in Tottenham, relying on the work of last season, making two consecutive seasons in the same club for the first time in my career. I wanted to continue the project here”, is justified AVB on his refusal to join the Parisian capital.
