Witsel, the calm and happy footballer: "I want to take advantage of every day to train, play... time passes very quickly".

The Belgian arrived at Atlético de Madrid as a proven and technical five for both Borussia Dortmund and the national team. "I had to start being more aggressive and Cholo gave me a second career as a center back, before I had barely played two games for Dortmund," Witsel himself tells EL MUNDO. Witsel is a calm man and happy to be able to dedicate himself to what he does and to be where he is, in the round of 16 of a Champions League.
