Stepping into the camp of Jinmen Tigers, Škorić was interviewed by Tianjin TV's "New Vision of Sports" on January 31st, sharing his first experience of the Chinese Super League and his deep impression of his new team. At the same time, he also did not forget to mention his new hair transplant, Balderrama is no longer the shadow of Zidane, but his own new image.
First time in the CFL, how did you feel on your debut?
"My Chinese Super League debut was against Zim Tigers when I was still not fully acclimatized. The gap between the Croatian league and the Chinese Super League took me almost two months to get used to the rhythm and tactics of the league." Škorić recalled.
Versatility and field position flexibility
"I can play at center back and at the back, and I dabbled in both positions this past season. In the future, I will give my best to whatever the coach arranges and let's see it together." Škorić is confident about the future.
Performance and contributions on the offensive side of the ball
"I scored two goals last season thanks to my frequent breaks at the back. Including set-pieces, I also capitalized on my chances. For me, the most important thing is for the team to win, as for the goalscorer, it is not so important. I will continue to give my best and contribute to the team." Škorđić said so.
Winter Training and Physical Recovery
"Physical recovery is a real challenge, I have not participated in an official competition for three months due to personal reasons. It takes time to regain my strength and fitness, but as time goes by, I am getting better and better. I will definitely be ready for the new season." Škorić is looking forward to the future.
Croatian newcomer Fioric, a fellow countryman's comfort
"Fiorici told me that it will be much easier for him to adapt to his new team with me. I can help him get to know the culture and the team here quickly. Fioric is a good player and I'm sure his arrival will make us stronger." Škorić is confident in his fellow countryman's newest addition.
First Impressions of the Amatsukumo Tiger
"The first time I played against the Zim Tigers, I got a sense of what this team is all about, including the great home atmosphere and the many passionate fans. Our goal is to win more matches and do the team proud." Škorić is looking forward to the future.
About hairstyles and nicknames
"Hair is my style, but please note that I have had hair transplants and my hair is slowly growing out. Maybe in a year's time, when I have long hair, people will rename me. Not Zidane, but Valderrama." Škorđić responded humorously to a question about his hairstyle.
