The desperate request of Sergiño Dest to the fans of Barcelona

With his arrival at Barcelona this season, from the Dutch Ajax, and his good performances throughout his first campaign, there aren't a few fans who begin to compare the American Sergiño Dest with a legend of the Spanish squad, such as Brazilian Dani Alves. However, the right-back himself made a call to Catalan fans, during an interview he gave to the BeIN Sports network, not to enter to seek equivalences with the veteran South American footballer, who during his time in Barcelona won 23 championships in eight seasons.

"Dani Alves is a legend, I cannot compare myself to him. He is someone I admire, I can learn from him. I am my own version, I am Sergiño Dest, but obviously I can learn many things from him. I just try to play the best I can", said the American.
