Former Real Madrid forward Jese Rodriguez has spoken of his joy at playing football and how he has "never trained so much".
The Spaniard has played on four occasions for Sporting CP- starting twice - but is yet to score and a report in Diario Sport earlier this month claimed the side reportedly have no plans to extend his loan deal and indeed want to cut it short.
"When I got the chance to play here (Sporting CP) I was very happy," Jese told O Jogo, as cited by Diario AS.
"Sport gives me the opportunity to be happy and play football is what I like the most.
"The important thing is to work and be prepared. I look good, I am fit and eager to be at that level I need to be or even better. I've never trained so much."
