I needed this affection from the Brazilian fans and I'm very happy to be here”, said Alex Sandro, who also commented on how he can help Mengão.
“Not only on the field, but off too. I had the opportunity to work with excellent players and coaches. From Porto, Juventus, Brazilian team. So, all of this now I bring to Flamengo, but I also came to learn from the high-level players they have (at the club), from the coaches, physical trainers, from the red and black nation, I'm sure I'll learn a lot and I am already receiving this affection that is special for me and my entire family”, he added.
