The player also said that he “never doubted his decision” to play in Brazilian football. He praised the country and indicated that he wants to stay at Corinthians, despite some friction with the board that has already been resolved.

“Today marks one year since I moved to Brazil. When I said I moved with faith and purpose, people questioned what that meant, and as I’m still on this journey, all I can say is… It’s been a very intense year, with many beautiful and special moments, but of course, when good things come, imbalance comes too, that’s how it works in the world we live in,” he posted.

“I never doubted my decision… Brazil is a beautiful country, with amazing people who have a lot of energy and a powerful spirit. That inspired me a lot, while I inspired many people at the same time. A challenging period wasn’t enough to distract me from the bigger picture I have in mind,” he concluded.
