After 13 years playing in Europe, left-back Alex Sandro is ready for his debut in Brazilian football, scheduled for Sunday, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The player will play his first game for Flamengo in a classic against Vasco.
Alex Sandro's last game on national soil was on July 2, 2011, when Santos beat América-MG by 1 to 0. On the 23rd of that month, he signed a contract with Porto, where he would begin a successful career in Europe, which included great performances in classics. The information is from ‘GE’.
With Santos, Alex Sandro had already won two São Paulo titles, a Copa do Brasil and a Libertadores. Upon arriving at Porto, he became two-time Portuguese champion and also won a Super Cup, remaining at the club for four years, where he consolidated his talent.

Over almost 10 years at the club, he won 12 titles: five Italian Championships, five Italian Cups and two Italian Super Cups. He also became the foreign player with the most appearances for Juventus, with 327 appearances, tying with the legendary Pavel Nedved.
He won two of these cups against Milan. During his time in Italy, the full-back had excellent performances against the Rossoneri. There were 11 wins, six draws and five defeats against the Milan club. In the most important classic, against Internazionale, the performance is more balanced.
There are nine victories for Juventus, seven draws and seven defeats , Alex Sandro also scored a goal against the Nerazzurri. Juve also has a local rival, Torino, and over this, the advantage of the full-back and his ‘Old Lady’ is great. There are 13 wins, four draws and no defeats in the Derby Della Mole.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
