Re: La Liga
Goalkeeper Jonathan ‘Jona’ López Pérez was presented as a new Getafe player today, and in the press conference, the 33-year-old was excited about the prospect of finally getting to make his La Liga debut.
“I’m very excited, because for me it’s a great opportunity and I hope not to disappoint. I come with eagerness to work, and to please”, the player stated.
“What I’ve fought for in my career has been to get a chance. Now it comes for me at 33 years of age. It’s not a bad age, but it’s been a pleasant surprise. I joined Getafe to realise my dream of debuting in La Liga.”
López originally began his career with Valencia, but never made an appearance in the first team, and was later loaned out to Numancia, Oviedo and Córdoba. Despite never getting a chance at Valencia, López is sure that the experience served to help him to where he is now.
“That’s the past. What I come to do now is to meet the objectives, play as much as possible and help the team. The only positive thing from those years is that they have helped me be where I am now.”
López joins from the Greek club Veria, and when asked what made him choose Getafe, the player confessed that the possibility of returning to Spain was an important factor.
“The first thing [that attracted me] was the opportunity to be in Spain, and the magnitude of the club. I come from Veria, and this is an important step in my career.”
