In indirect speech, we remove the comma after Reporting Verb and also the inverted commas of Reported Speech. In addition, as reporting verb is in Past tense, the Reported Speech will be changed from past indefinite to past perfect tense.
Here will be changed into there and Yesterday into the day before.
