Real Betis fullback Junior Firpo explains Real Madrid talk

Junior Firpo insists he's happy at Real Betis.

The defender has talked up the prospect of playing for Real Madrid in the future

But he told Marca: "No. I have said that Real Madrid was more attractive to me because my father is from Madrid. This has nothing to do with where I would rather play. Honestly, the team that is most interesting to me right now is Real Betis, where I have been since I was young.

"We still don't have a coach, but as soon as the new coach arrives and talks to all of us, we'll understand what he wants. I don't yet know who the coach will be."
