Atletico Madrid star Koke: Playing in the FIFA World Cup is a “dream within a dream”

 
Atlético Madrid right-footed midfielder Koke Resurrection admitted that joining the players selected for the World Cup in Qatar is a "dream". Koke stressed that he thinks only of the present, following the philosophy of his team each match separately, and highlighted the importance of the European Nations League and qualifying for its finals. He ends by pointing out that “for us, it is very important to qualify like last time for the Final Four. These are two games that will require a lot from us, both Switzerland, a good team that plays as a team, and Portugal, with good individuals. Qualifying for the World Cup will be a plus which seems close but still a long way to go and the first thing is to qualify in a tournament that is good, which we are close to winning and will give us confidence for the next World Cup ”. Koke said. 
Koke pointed out that the last two matches of the group stage of the League of Nations against Switzerland in Zaragoza and Portugal in Braga will give them “one more plus” for the preparation for the World Cup at the end of this 2022 in Qatar, although, according to him, “a lot remains.” “Now we are trying to qualify for a competition that we were about to win last time. Qualifying for the ‘final four’ would give us a lot of confidence for what is to come,” he confessed.
For Pedri, it is “proud” to have been summoned by Luis Enrique, although it is not the definitive list for Qatar 2022. “They are two important games and we want to reach the ‘final four’. For me coming to the national team is enjoying and learning from the best,” he said.
He continued, "If I'm lucky, I may appear in the FIFA World Cup, which is one of my biggest dreams. It is the dream of every player, but a win against Switzerland, in the present context is our major concern.”
