– Throughout my career, since birth, I had depression. did i know that No. Have I done anything about it? No. But somehow I adapted. When I was a little boy, I didn't get much love and affection. When my father held me for the first time, he said, “This kid is going to be an amazing football player.” From that moment on, I was programmed to be successful. My father took my body. It was difficult, he admitted.
– One day, when I was 13 years old, we won a match. I scored six goals. But the focus was always on what I wasn't doing. I heard: “You lost control of the ball here, it was a bad pass and this and that.” All of these things can make me who I am, or these experiences can break me. I decided to become someone. I wasn't afraid of failures because they make you shape. I was afraid that people would not be satisfied, explained the 46-year-old.
