He's come from having nothing, 979 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:17,080 and I feel like he's worked for what he's got. 980 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:18,760 And he's never changed. 981 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:21,960 That's a great example for kids 982 00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:25,880 that are wanting to kind of follow in his footsteps. 983 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:38,320 I can see him being a leader in the way that footballers can 984 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:40,960 by going into estates and talking to kids and saying, 985 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:44,840 "Listen, I came from a similar upbringing to you. Look at me now." 986 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:50,280 I think that Kalvin is completely living his dream. 987 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:54,960 I think the future for Kalvin at Manchester City 988 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:59,840 is about him gradually getting himself as one of the main players in that team. 989 00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:01,120 I think he's good enough. 990 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:04,840 I think that, now he's free of injuries, that will be the next thing that happens. 991 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:11,320 KALVIN HAS REMAINED INJURY FREE SINCE SEPTEMBER 2022 992 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:17,160 AND PLAYED HIS FIRST 90 MINUTES IN FEBRUARY 2023 993 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,320 Mahrez.

And only a minute gone. 996 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:31,560 It's been a difficult season for me, but I'm heading on the right track now, 997 01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:34,600 and I feel like I'm understanding, you know, my role in the team 998 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,840 and how I'm supposed to play for the team 999 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,520 and, hopefully, whenever I get my chance, I can be ready.
