Jimenez Discusses Real Madrid, AC Milan, and Bournemouths Launchpad

Bournemouth Secures Former Real Madrid Youth Player

The Cherries have finalized the acquisition of a former youth player from Real Madrid, officially signing him last week from AC Milan.

Reasons Behind the Move

In an interview with AS, the player shared his motivations for making the switch. “Definitely. It stands out, especially this summer when I noticed that Bournemouth expressed interest in me,” he remarked.

Notable Transfers Catching His Attention

He highlighted the impressive transfers of his contemporaries:

  • Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid
  • Illia Zabarnyi to PSG
  • Dango Ouattara to Brentford

“This kind of movement is appealing because it factors into where I envision my career heading and what I aspire to accomplish in the future,” he added.

Reflections on His Journeys

When discussing his experiences at Real Madrid and AC Milan, the wing-back stated: “At Real Madrid, I absorbed everything about football. I joined at a young age, just seven, and departed almost as an adult.”

Grateful for Previous Opportunities

He continued by expressing appreciation for his time in Italy: “Milan represented a significant advancement for me. It was the club that enabled me to compete in the First Division. I will always be thankful to Milan, as not every team provides the chance to play at such a high level, especially a prestigious club like Milan.”

In conclusion, he expressed his satisfaction, saying, “I’m truly happy to be here at Bournemouth.”
