The former Real Betis star has starred for Spain at the Euros and said: “Meeting him (Ancelotti) was a very important step in my career.
"From the beginning he backed me, and it was not easy to pay what Napoli paid for me, a player who had not played much in La Liga with Betis.
"If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be here.”
