In the middle of the stop of selections, Fermín López has taken advantage of to give a series of interviews in which it has reviewed his actuality and has 'wetted' especially what had to visit before 'settle' in the FC Barcelona. The midfield player has turned into one of the big surprises in this season and everything seems to indicate to that will have a lot of continuity in the plans of Xavi Hernández.
The true is that, in his last interview, to the newspaper 'SPORT', has related how was all the process since the Barça interested in him. It has commented that his intention always was to dress of Barcelona, but that had other teams like the Real Madrid tantéandole: "Memory that went my father, once in the car… went Me like tanteando, no? Sometimes me day: "it Hears Fer, and if it comes the Barça or the Madrid, what do?". In this period already there was interest by me and clear, asked me my opinion, if it wanted to go me… Until a day said me that the Barça wanted to me and that what did".
The decision of Fermín, to the detail
As it has confessed, it did not have to think it twice before taking the decision to leave to the Barça: "I said "dad, dad, go us, go us". No I thought it to me. Yes that it is truth that afterwards, when it went happening the time and approached the hour to go me, as it had a bad time because it was very small and did not want to separate me of my parents, of my friends… But what have lived here, go in in The Masia, although it was very small, do not change it by at all".
The reason was very clear: it is culé of cradle. It was very easy to give the step and has not made a mistake, in the absolute: "it Is that, since have consciousness am culé. My idol was Messi and Iniesta and always went with the T-shirt of the Barça. And when it presented me this, as the first answer was yes", signalled before describing how was his first year in the club, in which it cost him adapt because it still was very small.
Unconditional support of the Barça
"The first year, especially, himself that followed enjoying of the football. It was already a bit different because it was football 11 and yes is truth that was small and cost me a bit more, but the first year enjoyed it a lot", confessed, adding that "already the following years, like cadet… Yes that it cost me a bit more because, no by pressure, but because I did not go well… My growth was very late and yes that it is truth that, in this moment, was difficult to trust me and put me to play, but well, went a stage that learnt and already happened".
It was not a simple process. All the contrary. The way was more than complicated and cost him adapt, but all the effort finished earning felt thanks to a Barça that had a lot of patience with him: "Always I have felt this support, of Roura, of Altimira… said Me that had patience, that the physicist went me to arrive, that learnt, that improved and that some day am went to change and that the strengths went to equalise. And that here would be when all the learnt would go out, all what had improved".
