“I waited with great faith and hope in the hope of still being able to serve the Brazilian national team in this Copa America. Unfortunately it will not be possible.
I know that my presence in the group is important, as well as of each of the other players, more than ever, they must completely turn their thoughts to the upcoming matches ahead.
I was given the duty of being one of the group leaders and as captain take responsibility for bringing glory and making decisions, whether wrong or right.
And this was a moment of decision. Regardless of where I’ll be from now on, I’ll always follow Brazil, rooting for the success of my teammates, but staying here training is killing me inside With no joy.
It’s awful to train without preparing for something and this could lead to an accidental injury which would make it even more difficult. I needed to express this feeling to the group and the coaching staff who have always supported me.
