And it did not have it easy as anybody had it in spite of offering it totally free, as it arrives to the Sporting of Gijón to struggle by the permanence of the Asturian in LaLiga. The carrilero, that was presented this Tuesday in Gijón, left clear the importance that has had Luis Enrique in his arrival.

"Since they speak with me, I asked a lot by the Sporting and the city. All the people have spoken very well of everything and think that is a big opportunity to contest minutes. The fans is very joined to the team and is one of the things that has carried me to choose the Sporting", said Douglas in his first words like sportinguista.

The canarinho stood out that it had been Luis Enrique the one who drove him finally to the team since "the trainer only speaks wonders of the club, the city and the fans. It has said me that I have to take advantage of this moment". On his position inside the field, and to the not to have him seen at all in Barcelona, Douglas considered that "I want to play in my position, but leave to the trainer so that it decide he. Abelardo will see the best way by where can play. I am lateral right".

Finally, the defender concluded saying that "I expect that it see Douglas of Sao Paulo and even better. I come ready, think that can take out what have learnt of the footballers of the Barcelona".
