Colombian center-back reveals the importance of support from the other foreign players in the squad for his quick transition to Brazilian football

Colombian center-back Millán highlighted the strong bond among the foreign players in Fluminense’s first-team squad. In an exclusive interview with ge, the defender said that living and working alongside teammates born outside the country was a key factor in his quick adaptation to Brazilian football and life in Rio de Janeiro.

At present, the Tricolor squad has nine foreign players in the first team, a number that rises to 13 when loaned-out players are included.

The warm welcome from his teammates gave the player the peace of mind he needed to focus on his performances on the pitch during his first months at the club.

— The truth is that the support from my teammates was very good. It’s very positive for those of us who are arriving. It’s not easy, it’s something new for us, and they are always available to help us make good decisions, whether at home or away from home. Everyone helped a lot — the center-back said.
