Hulk at Fluminense training ground, eyes debut: “I’m eager to help” | OneFootball

Announced by Fluminense as a new signing last week, forward Hulk is already in Rio de Janeiro. The player arrived in the city on the morning of this Monday (11) and went straight to CT Carlos Castilho, where he was officially introduced by the club.

On his first day at his new home, Hulk toured the training center facilities and had his first contact with his new teammates and the coaching staff led by Luis Zubeldía. After the initial activities, the forward also spoke with FluTV in an interview that will be released soon by the club.

The player will return to the training center this Tuesday (12) to begin his first activities. The schedule includes physical tests with the physiology department, an important step in assessing the athlete’s condition before the next phase of training.

During his arrival, Hulk praised the club’s structure and spoke about the conversation he had with the Tricolor coach.

“The structure is very good, and we’ll be able to make the most of it. My talk with Zubeldía was very good. I already had the opportunity to speak with him before, and we talked a little about the team. I’m coming with a great desire to get on the pitch, to help, to wear the Fluminense shirt, and to win important titles,” he said.

Hulk signed a permanent contract with Fluminense until December 31, 2027. Hulk’s first contact with the Fluminense fans already has a set date. The forward will be presented to the Tricolor supporters next Saturday at the Maracanã, before the match against São Paulo, valid for the 16th round of the Brazilian Championship.

However, the forward will only be able to make his debut for the club starting from the next transfer window, when he will be eligible to be registered for official competitions.
