Fabien Causeur, a long-term player of Real Madrid, spoke before the semi-finals of the Spanish Super Cup on various topics.
The experienced Frenchman is one of the veterans of the “Royal club”. Along with several players like Walter Tavares, Sergio Llull, Sergio Rodriguez, Rudy Fernandez and now Facundo Campazzo who has returned to Madrid, he represents the playing core of “Los Blancos”.
One of the topics in the interview with the Spanish “AS” was the diminutive Argentine, and Causeur did not waste words of praise for the former Crvena zvezda player.
“He is the same player as before. He always took care of himself and you can really see that he wanted to come home and be with us. Facundo is not someone new and he is the part we were missing,” the Frenchman began.
Fabien Causeur continued to talk about Campazzo, and explained in detail what the former NBA player will bring to the Madrid.
“He will bring us a new rhythm in attack. After the defensive rebound he will want to run a lot. That was already the strength of the team last year, but with him we will get a lot of creativity. He will bring us a lot of good things back and forth, he is a player who made a difference when he was here and we are counting on the same again,” said Causeur.
In the semifinals of the Super Cup, Real Madrid will play against Barcelona. The former Baskonia player singled out several things that will be key.
“The game is early in the season, so there will be mistakes. I think turnover control will be very important. The intensity and desire will be at a very high level, therefore the jump and defense will be very important“, concluded the 36-year-old from Brest.
