@IkerCasillas and @Carles5puyol joking and making fun out of coming out in football is disappointing. It’s a difficult journey that any LGBTQ+ ppl have to go through. To see my role models and legends of the game make fun out of coming out and my community is beyond disrespectful

I know I’m both gay and a footballer. Beyond being a professional, I must fight for my place in this sport. It’s unbelievable today, people resist supporting gay footballers. I will keep fighting for my community and for everything we deserve. I’m here to change perceptions.

Uganda! This is for you. Your death penalty and life imprisonment you have approved for same-sex relations. This is sickening and I’m not afraid to stand against you. Pride days are here to remark nations like you that need to take a look at themselves. #humanrights

A year ago I had a serious injury, achilles tendon rupture, I was a year without being able to play. Unfortunately, now I live a similar situation. Football is my life and no matter how many obstacles they’re, I’ll always have the enthusiasm to keep fighting for my dreams.
