Musah: "I want to help take the team as high up the table as possible"

Yunus Musah has returned from two games with the USA, having chosen the country for his eligibility for international appearances.

The Valencia CF player is back to club duty, and VCF Media caught up with him to hear about his experience with the USMNT and his hopes for the coming LaLiga games.

"I’m feeling really good. I’m happy to have gone away with the national team to play for them. We played two games and won them both," said Musah, who had a tough call to make as to which country he would represent at senior level.

"It wasn’t an easy decision, because I’d represented England since I was 14. It wasn’t easy to leave that behind, and they have a good squad. It was a difficult choice.

"Now I can focus on the next objective and everything that we want to do with the US national team. It was a special moment for me, and I want more moments like it."

Now his attention returns to domestic action, and he believes Valencia CF have the potential to go on a strong run in the final stage of the season.

"We have to win the next game. We haven’t performed as we are capable away from home, and we want to change that now," he explained in the run-up to Sunday's game against Cadiz CF.

"We are always training hard, and we are all very motivated. We are going to try to do our best. We have ambition and desire. We all want to do it and we just have to make it happen on the pitch.

"I want to do everything that I can for the team, and help to take us as high up the table as possible."
