Since signing for City in 2022 he took part in a bombastic press conference to unveil his signing, before a surprise and engaging appearance before the Champions League clash with Copenhagen this season. Apart from that, he's kept his distance from the press conference arena.

"It felt amazing. I needed it," he said of his break. "I was quite tired. It's going to be a long season this year as well."
