Hulk lands in Rio, eyes titles at Flu: “Libertadores is my dream”

Forward Hulk is already in Rio de Janeiro to begin his journey with Fluminense. The player arrived on Monday morning at Galeão International Airport, coming from Belo Horizonte on a private jet.

The 39-year-old star underwent medical exams, signed a contract through the end of 2027, and is now set to work with the Tricolor squad for the rest of the season.

Upon his arrival, Hulk highlighted his motivation to play for the Rio club and revealed his desire to win the Conmebol Libertadores wearing the Fluminense shirt.

My dream is to win a Libertadores. Fluminense has a very qualified squad, a style of play that suits me a lot, and they are strong contenders for major titles. I’m coming to help and add experience to the group,” he said.

The forward also addressed criticism related to his age and assured that he remains motivated to compete at the highest level.

People talk a lot about my age, but I still have the same desire as the kid who signed his first contract at 18. I want to keep winning, winning titles, and making history,” he stated.

Hulk will wear the number 7 shirt at Fluminense. Although he is already integrated into the squad, the forward will only be able to make his official debut from July onward, when the transfer window reopens.
