— I aim to do a good job and I believe that if our group is doing well, it will definitely show. I want to earn my spot in the National Team. I haven't had the opportunity yet with this new committee. If I perform well at Fluminense, things will happen -, Arana concluded in his presentation interview this Monday (26).

Guilherme Arana was one of Fluminense's signings for this season. In the classic, the left-back started among the starters, but was eventually replaced by Renê in the final stretch of the match at Maracanã.
