Carlos Forbs is preparing to face Sporting again this Wednesday, November 26th, in a Champions League match. The player, who went through the green and white's youth academy, is experiencing one of the best phases of his career and now has not hidden what this game means to him.

"I am very excited because it's an important game. It's special [to face Sporting]. I played there when I was young, in the youth teams, so it will be a special game for me," admitted the forward, who was recently called up by Roberto Martínez to the National Team.

Furthermore, Carlos Forbs also discussed the previous Champions League match, in which he scored twice and delivered a great performance against Barcelona, in Club Brugge's 3-3 draw: "Did they ask about me? I don't know. You have to ask the coach," he joked.

Regarding his debut with the National Team, where he wore Cristiano Ronaldo's number '7', the former Sporting player shared his emotion: "It was a special moment. It was a source of pride for me and my family. It's an iconic number. It was a special moment that I will never forget."
