In a media interview on August 7, Beijing time, FC Barcelona's young center back Serge Dominguez showed his deep emotion and strong commitment to the club. He not only has high hopes that the La Masia youth camp will be the future pillar of the club, but also expressed his determination to contribute everything to the team.
Dominguez emphasized in the interview, "Whatever the club needs me to do, I'll be ready, whether it's in the first team or wherever I'm needed." This selfless attitude and strong sense of responsibility shows his love for the soccer business and his loyalty to Barcelona.
He singled out several young players, also from La Masia, such as Lamine, Cubasi and Fermin, as being able to surprise and contribute to the team if given enough confidence and support. Dominguez said, "La Masia can be the future of the club. You can always see that when they take the field, just give them confidence and they will give answers."
Speaking about fitting into the locker room, Dominguez gratefully stated, "The seniors have helped us a lot." This team spirit and support from the seniors has certainly provided a favorable environment for his growth on the team.
As for his future, Dominguez keeps a clear and open mind. He said, "It depends on the club. Wherever I am needed at the club, I will be ready. I hope I can contribute to the team like Kubasi did."
In addition, Dominguez shared his role models and references on his soccer path. He mentioned that his idol as a child was Gerard Piqué, while now he appreciates world-class center backs like Van Dyke and Araujo even more. The careers and playing styles of these outstanding players have undoubtedly provided him with valuable learning and reference opportunities.
Finally, Dominguez spoke highly of his team's performance in the preseason tourney. He opined, "We saw improvement in every game in the tourney."
