🤍 Avant de signer dans un club, Cucurella et sa femme s'informent toujours sur les établissements pouvant accueillir leur fils, Matéo, qui a été diagnostiqué autiste. 🗣️ Cucurella : "Nous ne nous serions pas installés dans un club où il n’y a pas d’écoles adaptées ou où nous ne pouvons pas trouver les conditions qui aident mon fils à s’adapter. D’autres clubs étaient intéressés, mais nous avons d’abord cherché s’il y avait des écoles pour lui ; cette question est la plus importante pour nous. Heureusement, Madrid offre tout, et nous aurons là-bas tout ce dont nous avons besoin. Quand nous nous sommes installés en Angleterre, il allait d’abord dans des écoles ordinaires, et il n’y était pas à l’aise ; il ressentait beaucoup de confusion. Il était jeune et pas heureux, et cela affecte énormément. Ma famille est l’aspect le plus important pour moi." 🙏 #FamilyFirst #AutismAwareness #MentalHealth
