T<\/span>Carlos Vicente’s move to Birmingham City was one of the most surprising moves of the winter transfer window.<\/p>\n

Former Alaves player swaps La Liga for England’s 13th-placed team in the second division “It’s difficult to accept. Everything new is a bit scary, but we have to move forward without hesitation,” Carlos Vicente said in an interview with Quiroleros.<\/p>\n

Birmingham City’s interest has been ongoing for a long time, and he said: “There was interest in the summer at the end of the market, but there was no possibility of him leaving because it would leave a hole at Alaves.”<\/p>\n

There was also interest in the summer after the market closed, but there was no possibility of Alaves leaving the club because there was no replacement.<\/p>\n

“They showed me in different ways how much they loved me, which helped me take the next step,” Carlos Vicente emphasizes. “Of course, what everyone is thinking about (economic factors) comes into play. I’m not going to lie to anyone, but there’s a lot more that comes into play when making a decision like that.”<\/p>\n

\u201cTom Brady called me and I was numb.\u201d<\/h2>\n

But there was one detail that made a difference. “When I had a video call with Tom Brady, I was paralyzed. He’s the closest thing to God to me.”“It’s not God, but it’s almost God. I’m an NFL geek and it’s always nice to have him that involved. I’m very surprised in that respect,” he said with a laugh.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
