“I showed in the past that I can come back into the team and I will show it again.”

On why he didn’t take a pay cut, he said he’s not the inky one who didn’t take the offer but the media published only his name.

We didn’t get enough details, we just had to give a decision. This was not fair, especially for the young guys, and I refused. As far as I’m aware I was not the only player who rejected the cut in the end, but only my name came out.”
