I have seen him calm, he is a very calm boy, a young man who is very mature for his age. With us, he behaves like a person more mature than his age. We also transmit that tranquility. He has to get used to having the spotlight on him, but he’s ready for it and he’ll continue to grow and mature.”

We have to continue doing things much better.”
