Real Madrid goalkeeper Antonio Adan is grateful to coach Jose Mourinho for believing in him.
Mourinho has handed debuts to Adan in all three competitions Real have competed in this season.
"I've been at the club for many years and have experienced a lot here," Adan told Real Madrid TV.
"Having finally made it after so much hard work and sacrifice, I intend to enjoy being a Real Madrid player.
"He's (Mourinho) helped all of us grow as professionals and we all respect him a lot. He works hard and has won everywhere he's been, so evidently that's something to be respected.
"He's shown confidence in all of us and has, subsequently, helped us improve as players. He makes all of us feel important and that's fundamental for a squad at a club like Real Madrid."
