São Paulo’s promising midfielder Lucas Evangelista could not hide his happiness when he was told about his promotion to the club’s senior squad.

The midfielder is under contract with Desportivo Brasil, and he has been loaned to São Paulo until June 2014, after a loan spell at English club Manchester United.

He told São Paulo’s official site: “The news came on Monday, as they came to take a picture of me for the official site.”

“That’s when I checked the official site and found out that I would be at the senior squad, but I was skeptical.”

“After I had my first training session, it was pure joy, a dream come true.”

São Paulo’s under 20 manager Sérgio Baresi praised him, he said: “He is a player who is consistent throughout the game, he is intense every day, dedicates a lot to training, and do the same during matches.”

“He has a great game dynamic and is now seeing the results of his professionalism.”
