Maduro Hedwiges He spent much of his football career in Spain. The midfielder was linked duringFive seasons to Valencia and spent more than one campaign in Sevilla. In both clubs it coincided with Unai Emerymirror in which one looks now that he is a soccer coach.
This has been recognized in an interview with Relief in which he reviews his career remembering his stage as Sevillista. «Last year I went to the Sports City of Aston Villa and spent a week there in which I spoke a lot with him (with Unai Emery). I like to attack, I like to have the ball, but always with intensity. It is different. It is a phenomenon. You see the games of Aston Villa and that is … he is the architect of everything», He says. «He is a man who is with football 24 hours a day. He is crazy about that, for football. He likes it so much that he is able to transmit it to his players. And Guardiola is the same. It happens a lot with the Spanish coaches: they two, Iraola, Xabi Alonso, Luis Enrique … I think that having that is very important to win, because the players feel it and notice. When I was my coach in Valencia, he knew everything about me and even my parents, my family. So that is very good, because it is a relationship of trust that you do not have with all the coaches, ”
Unai Emery arrives at Sevilla and meets Maduro again. The former soccer player remembers how it was to get to Nervión: «There were problems with the president at an economic level. That’s why I go to Sevilla, who was growing and was an increasingly important team, in 2012. When, being in Valencia, I played against Sevilla … I liked that atmosphere a lot. And the situation in Valencia was not simple, and I looked for something new, new energy and change some air. Now when I think about it, I think I went to Sevilla at a very good time. At the career level it is also beautiful, although I would have liked to play, I don’t know, eight years in the same team, but the situation there, in Valencia, was not good and that’s why I left ».
Medical problems
Maduro came to play as Sevillista 31 official matches Although it was detected A heart problem That, although he would not prevent him from playing, he marked him as he remembers. “It was very complicated because I have never had problems,” he says during the interview. «I had a bad time, very bad. I have always felt good and I have never noticed anything thanks to God. I have never had problems. Never. So, when a doctor tells me: ‘Hey, we have to look at something close to your heart …’. I thought: ‘What? What is that? ‘ Of course, I know my body but I don’t do it as a doctor does. They told me first that I was fine and two months later they told me what I had. I felt insecure, you play a lot … it’s not just football, it’s your life. It is not the same that happened, for example, to Kun Agüero, because he noticed it. I don’t. Everything was going well, I felt good, ”he recalls.
He admits that it was a difficult section of his life although he appreciates having left him behind: «My parents believe in God and they, in that sense, were nervous but calm at the same time. They always told me that life is much more important in football. I sometimes didn’t see him because I thought about playing, playing, playing and playing. It was hard for me to manage it … You start to raise life without football, but what I like is football. I don’t want to dedicate myself anything else. I remember that I went to the United States to look at my heart, I was with more than ten cardiologists in a week And that is very complicated. In the end they told me that everything was fine although they did diagnose that, but I could continue playing ».
Maduro would leave for Sevilla in January 2014 then signing for the PAOK of Salares and happy “after being in two greats in Spain: Valencia and Sevilla.” “It was my dream and I fulfilled it”highlights the Dutch who had a testimonial participation in the Europa League that Sevilla conquered that same year of his goodbye to Spanish football.
