I dream of playing for a club like Manchester City, which for me is the best club in the world, but I believe everything will go its way. Before that, I hope to play in Bahia, win championships and become an idol, and then go to Europe. Who knows, maybe I can win a championship with Manchester City, Become an idol. "

"I am very happy to get the nickname 'Haaland', he is an inspiration to many people, both in the penalty area and outside the penalty area. I think my movement is very similar to him. In addition to Haaland, I have some other role models, such as Riyadh Crescent forward Marcos Leonardo, who came from the Santos youth academy and I like to watch him play."
