Jacobo Ramon has thanked Cesc Fabregas for his role in his first senior Spain call-up, saying Como’s decision to sign him from Real Madrid has been fully justified.
According to AS, via TuttoMercatoWeb, the 21-year-old centre-back found out about his first senior call-up from Luis de la Fuente through a message from Como teammate Assane Diao.
“Coming in here for the first time is a huge honour, and I’m really proud to be with the Selección,” Ramon said at Las Rozas before the squad left for Prague.
“I was at home and Assane Diao messaged me telling me to look at my phone. He sent me a photo of the list, and at first I couldn’t believe it.”
Ramon on Fabregas and leaving Real Madrid
Ramon knew he was in Spain’s provisional squad but hadn’t spoken to the coach before the announcement.
“If I’m here, it’s thanks to the faith he’s shown in me and what I’m doing with Como. I want to keep going down this path,” he said.
The defender left Real Madrid for Como last summer, and he’s become a key part of Fabregas’ side. The Lariani are fourth in Serie A and made history with a record 9-1 win at Lens in the Champions League last week.
“I left Real Madrid to carve out a place for myself at the top level. I can’t say I’ve reached my goal, but I’m on the right path,” he said.
“Cesc believed in me straight away. He explained the project to me, and his way of seeing football suits my qualities perfectly. I’m really grateful to him.”
