One of the most talked-about forwards in the current transfer market, 22-year-old Levante striker Ayon, recently accepted an exclusive interview with GiveMeSport and talked about transfer rumors and his role model.

Talk about celebrations

"I really like Japanese anime, especially "Dragon Ball". Piccolo is my favorite character, so my goal celebration is to imitate him. He started out as a villain, but later realized that he could no longer If this continued, he started to help others. He changed his ways and had a positive impact on others. This deeply touched me. I aspire to be such a person, to be a better person and to help others like Piccolo."

Talking about Barcelona, Real Madrid's interest

"Eto'o is the best, he is one of the players who has had the greatest influence on me, and I especially admire his performance when he played for Barcelona. Lewandowski is another role model for me, especially when he played for Dortmund. He has been throughout his career. Zhongdu maintains an amazing scoring efficiency. His performance at Barcelona is impressive. He is an excellent finisher and his movement is very smart. He always receives the ball at the right time. I learned a lot from him when we play against Barcelona at the Nou Camp next month. I hope to get Lewandowski's jersey. As for the links with Barcelona and Real Madrid, I am flattered, it means a lot to me and it means that my hard work has paid off, but I have to focus on Levante now and the future will take its course. I won’t let these rumors occupy my mind. If one day the transfer does happen, it will be because I have worked hard enough."

Talking about the attention of Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea

"Manchester United is a top team. I admire Van Persie very much, he has talent, style and confidence, and Rooney is also a world-class striker. Now, Mbemo is an extraordinary player, and it is an honor to play with him in the Cameroon national team. I believe he can give me a lot of help. When I was growing up, Chelsea was the Premier League team that I paid most attention to, thanks to Drogba and Eto'o. This team often signs very good African players. There are so many top clubs in the Premier League. If you ask me if I would like to join Chelsea? "Playing for Chelsea is a dream come true for me."

Talk about role models

"My playing style is maybe a bit like Kane. Haaland is a world-class player and it is an honor to be compared, but I don't think I have reached that level yet. That is what I am working towards. It is very important to observe the performance of other forwards. I have studied a lot of Kane's game, especially the way he handles one-on-one situations and his movement without the ball. I think there is a lot to learn from Kane and. Like Kane, I also have strength and passion and can play from a deeper position. He has excellent heading and foot skills, which makes him a very complete player, which is what I want. Although our physical conditions are not exactly the same, I think our game philosophy is similar. I also like to watch Luis Suarez. He has always been an efficient finisher. I watched a lot of his games during his time at Liverpool. He is not only very technical but also has good movement. I think there are few players with higher football intelligence than Suarez. All top forwards must not only be good at finishing, but also be able to improvise."

Talking about the relationship with Brighton midfielder Baleba

"Our relationship is special. Well, why not play together in the Premier League in the future? We have the same roots and there is no need to hide when we live together. He has been guiding me and we often discuss how to improve. In fact, many players from Cameroon have moved to the five major European leagues over the years. I think it’s because of Cameroon’s love for football and the hard work of the players. When people tell me how much it’s worth, it means nothing to me. As a player, the most important thing is how you perform on the pitch. I also discussed this topic with Baleba and sometimes I would joke: ‘Brother, I am not a player worth 100 million euros’ and see how he reacts! Success does not depend on the price you are given, but the effort you put in to be the best player.”
