"I never thought twice when I heard Bayern wanted me. I already knew as a young child that I wished to arrive at learn new nations and cultures. At age 24 the full time was right," Javi Martinez told TZ. "I had had a good time with Athletic Bilbao. When I discovered Bayern's attention, I did not need long to make a decision. You may not get opportunities such as this twice, so I got at it. "One of the inventors I used to play against when I was a young child had told me that I'd play for Bayern 1 day, and he turned out to be right. I gave him a call if the exchange was a deal, but he couldn't remember it." The keeping midfielder then revealed that he imagined learning to be a goalkeeper in his younger years, but his brother persuaded him he'd be better off in midfield. "I always wanted to be considered a goalkeeper. My buddy then put a with me, though. Penalties would be taken 10 by him and I can continue as a go stopper if I saved one. Obviously, he didn't miss a single one."
