De Ligt's father in law: 'He wants to become the best defender in the world'
Keje Molenaar was talking to Gazzetta dello Sport about his son-in-law's ambitions and he said: '' He has a huge ambition. He wants to become the best defender in the world that today is Sergio Ramos for me. But Matthijs can get there: and the goals against Juve and Tottenham prove it."
On what advise he gave to the defender, he said: ''I advised him to go and play with Messi or Ronaldo . Because such a fortune does not happen many times in life. I was on the team with Cruijff, it was incredible. He was a coach on the pitch, pointing everyone's fingertips."
On why he chose Juve: '' He has always liked Juve, but Cristiano was also important with that sentence after the final of Nations League. He said he wanted it with him in Turin: until recently, CR7 was his hero. The other reason for the choice was technical: the Italian defense school."
