"It is important for me that Vidi pays a lot of attention to the development of young players"

At the beginning of introductory interviews, we usually ask "why did you choose football as a child". In your case, this would not be relevant, as you were clearly born into a footballing family. So I'd rather turn the question around: was there any possibility for you not to become a footballer?

I think I had very few chances (laughs). When I was a child, the most common gift I received was a ball and from the moment I learned to walk, my father always took me to the park where we played with the balls he had given me. What else but football! In fact, I was born into a family of footballers. My grandfather was a footballer for FK Crvena Zvezda, while his brother Dragoslav Sekularac - who also played for Crvena Zvezda - was one of the best Yugoslav footballers of all time. My father is also a real football fanatic, so I very quickly got into the sport.

Who was your childhood idol?

Honestly, my father is my role model. I still look up to him to this day. And in football, like millions of footballers, my role model is Cristiano Ronaldo.

You were born in London, but moved to Switzerland relatively early on. What was the reason for the change of country?

Yes, I was born in London and we lived there until I was five. Then we moved to Switzerland because of my father's job, and I started primary school there and finished there. When I was 16, I moved to Turin, because that's when I was signed by Juventus.

How did the Italian opportunity come to you?

Luckily, I did well in Switzerland, I made the national team for my age group and I had a lot of interest from many places. But I could only go abroad after I turned 16. My family and I considered the options carefully and Juventus seemed the best option at the time. My time there did not disappoint, I spent a good two and a half years in Turin. From there I moved to London and became a Fulham player.

After Turin and London, your next stop is Székesfehérvár. What are your first impressions of the club and the city?

I came to a great club, everyone was very welcoming and the city is beautiful. Obviously it's not Turin in size and certainly not London, but I don't miss the hustle and bustle and chaos that London has. I'm not a guy who hangs out on the streets much. I try to live as sporty a life as possible. I watch what I eat, I train to the max and I spend most of my free time recovering and relaxing. My father and I moved to Székesfehérvár, we spend all our free time together now, when I'm not relaxing at home we walk around the city centre and I think we've tried all the restaurants (laughs).

Do you and your father talk a lot about football?

All the time! Like I said, he's always been my role model, his opinion is important to me. He also watches my training sessions and my matches. He is also my number one teacher and critic. He helps me to be even better and I try to follow his advice.

What did you know about Hungarian football and Vidi before you came here?

Obviously it would be inaccurate to say that I was up to date with Hungarian football. However, I knew that Hungarian football and Vidi had a very good history and the Hungarian national team had been doing very well recently. There are great Hungarian footballers playing in the top leagues. My dad knows a lot about Vidi's past and he talks about it a lot these days, but I've also picked up a lot of useful information about the club myself. I'm aware of the attention they pay to developing young players, which I think is very important, but the club's glorious past is also remarkable.

Many players do not like to watch football on TV in their spare time. How about you?

Whenever I get the chance, I sit down in front of the TV and watch a game. I used to watch the top five leagues in London on TV, but now I try to watch all the Hungarian matches as well, because it gives me a better understanding not only of Hungarian football, but also of our opponents.

Do you have a favourite football team?

Yes, Fiorentina. I know this may come as a surprise at first, because it's not a star team, but my father is a big fan of the club and he instilled that in me.

How well have you got to know your teammates?

Yes, I've been able to talk to everyone over the last few days and I feel like I've managed to fit in straight away. I'm in a young team, the guys are great, I get on well with everyone. The teammates and the staff help me with everything, it's really like I've been on the team for a long time.

What were your goals when you came to Vidi?

I'm trying to improve day by day and do my best in training and in matches. I have to progress gradually, my main goal now is to make the team, and then once I'm on the pitch I want to help Vidi with goals and assists to get better results in the league and the cup..
