For the National team: "It does not depend on me. I had a talk with my coaches, but they have a plan for me during the summer, I'm trying to convince them and give them to understand how important is the national team for me. I try to show them how much I want it. There are many things involved. I need to get better, it has to do with my contract. I will go back there, to see what exactly they want from me. I wish I could play in the Olympics because there's nothing bigger than that. "
