UEFA.com: You are young, you have played for several clubs in France. Why did you decide to go elsewhere?
Enzo Crivelli: Yes I wanted to discover another culture, another country, another football too. That’s why I decided to leave France, for the moment it succeeds, it’s a good thing.
And why Turkey?
The club came forward and was interested in me. I was also interested in this club, that’s why I came here.

Tell us about your arrival in Istanbul …
There is a lot of life. It’s very, very big, it’s dynamic, it always moves. The first impression I remember is the size of the city.
Do you feel at home there?
I feel good everywhere! Here I got used to the city, to people. I adapted well I think.
• 8th go Istanbul Başakşehir 1-0 Copenhagen
What are the differences compared to France? What do you do differently?
Nothing, nothing has changed in my lifestyle. I do exactly the same as what I did in France. This is also why I got used to it, nothing has changed in my life.
You started well on the field too, with three goals in the Europa League group stage …

For now, everything is okay. We will try to continue like this. We want to continue to have a great season, to grow by having a great season.
Did it surprise you to adapt so quickly?
No, because it’s a team that plays football, with a lot of centers and opportunities for the attacker, which makes it easier for a No. 9.

You scored the goal of qualifying for the knockout phase at 91e minute of the 6e day in Mönchengladbach …
Yeah it’s beautiful. Everything was gathered that evening. A big stadium, full, with big supporters … The scenario, everything went as in a dream. It is a great accomplishment for us, for Turkey.
There was a lot of joy, of euphoria after the match in the locker room, we thought of our families, of what we had just achieved. You can’t explain how you feel when you mark. There are no words to describe this. Seeing the nets tremble is something unique, I can’t explain it.
