André Miranda in focus: “In love with the game and hooked on winning” | OneFootball

André Miranda

“Passionate about the game, addicted to winning”

His main strength is his competitive spirit: he is deeply passionate about the game and has an enormous hunger for victory. That trait will help him overcome challenges and reach this stage in a position distinct from that of players his age. There is also a genetic component, visible in his physical robustness, explosive ability, and the way he manages to impose himself and be strong in duels. It is up to us to find a balance between what needs to be developed and what is essential to enhance. It is fundamental to respect the player’s originality. The tendency to standardize players in youth development is often criticized, but we have a great responsibility to make sure that does not happen, trying to make up for weaknesses without losing sight of what the player does well and what should be further developed, because that is what will set him apart from the rest.
