His work ethic and constant desire to improve will be the trademarks of his entire career. When the neighbours become vocal about the noise, he is given the keys of the gym at the Alba Academy, the school where he studies and plays and where he can stay until late even after team workouts without any risk of upsetting the neighbours.
