His father said: ""I said that it was a dream for me to see Marcus at Barça. All the players in the world have the dream of playing for Barça, it's a reality. But I don't know. Does he have any role or contract?

"I think the The important thing for Marcus is that he continues to grow stronger."

He added, "I like him a lot. In France they said he couldn't be a great player because he wasn't very tall or very fast, but I think he's a very intelligent player. I think he will be a great player, with the years he will be even better."
