Faivre: “I had contacts with Milan. But I am not obsessed”

Romain Faivre who granted an interview to Gazzetta dello Sport that made so much noise, is now back again with another one, this time with French media Ouest-France.fr.

Here are his words:

"My interview with Gazzetta? I can understand that it made a lot of noise. But, my aim was to talk about my qualities, to present myself, evaluate my performances and flaws. Which player from Brest would not be flattered with AC Milan's interest? It's logic. I have had contact with the club but I am not obsessed. Compared to last year, I have higher stats at the same time of the season. I'm trying to improve some things that we talked about with the manager, in defense and in the finish in particular because I could have been even more decisive. But I think it's only positive."

You don't know where you will play after the first part of the season?

"I made it clear that in football I have high goals and high ambitions", said Faivre, "I have to do it step by step and that's why I have more support: I have a physical trainer, a mental trainer, a nutritionist. This is a lot that, potentially, can prepare me to take a step forward before going to another club. If I go to another club, whether it's AC Milan or whatever, or even stay at Stade Brestois, it's because it's good for me, I'm just preparing to be above the others. I add all these little details that maybe will make me go to a team like AC Milan."

So you are working on your own to make a possible transfer move in the future?

"It's for me. With Stade Brestois alone, I'm already feeling a lot better on the pitch lately", replied Faivre, "In the last three games, I have the feeling that everything is going well. Physically I could even go on, I'm not tired when I get home. Well, maybe it's because I'm not trying hard enough (laughs)."
