Shakhtar defender - about the match against Madrid in the Champions League.

Shakhtar Donetsk defender Marlon admitted that he could have continued his career in Real Madrid, and not in Barcelona.

" Today he is going through a period of reforms, like other great clubs such as Juventus, Barcelona. At any time, he will return to who he was two or three years ago..

Benzema is in great shape now, but also Vinicius, Modric, Kroos. There are great players there, you can't play with them.

"

" Just promised Barcelona I would come and I'm a man of my word. Being so young, it was an honor for me to be able to choose between Madrid and Barca..

I'm sorry I didn't move to Real? Good question! I usually don't regret anything. In life, you can sometimes be more rational and less emotional.. When you don't follow your emotions, sometimes you are in a rush, "

Shakhtar vs Real Madrid match will take place on Tuesday, October 19. The beginning of the fight - at 22:00 Kiev time.
