This week, Rafael van der Vaart, who arrived in Seville to join "Real Betis", joked that he wants to fight for the "La Liga" title with the team that has just returned to the highest division.
The 32-year-old footballer moved to Spain after two not very successful seasons at the "Hamburg" club.
"I talked to the coach. We want to triumph in the league," - the Dutchman joked.
"The most important thing is that our fans are happy because of our good football. When the club dropped to "Segunda", I saw that its YouTube account still had 40 thousand followers. That says a lot about the team," he said.
"Betis" is a great club and I am happy to be back in the best league in the world," he added.
In the past, Van der Vaart has worn the jersey of Madrid's "Real".
