"IT MADE ME VERY HAPPY"

Speaking about being called up to the national team after four years, Fernando Muslera said, "The invitation made me very happy. During these four years, many things happened in my personal life that allowed me to change my mind and open new doors. Writing my name in the history of Uruguay's football is a source of pride for me and my children. If it happens, it will be a happiness that I cannot describe in words today."

The 39-year-old experienced goalkeeper evaluated his Galatasaray career and announced that he would return to Turkey in the future, stating, "Turkey is my second home.

Finally, Fernando Muslera stated, "Galatasaray and Turkey are my second home. Turkey is truly a wonderful country, a country where football is loved very much. The same fans also go to basketball, women's volleyball, and men's volleyball outside of football. Experiencing and seeing Turkish football was really a very beautiful experience. Today, this is a source of pride and happiness for me; for my children to remember this... to remember where their father played... In short, for them to have lived those magnificent experiences."
