Valued for his performances for Atlético Mineiro and the Brazilian national team in the Olympic Games, left-back Douglas Santos has been attracting interest from Europe.
During the Olympics where Brazil won Gold, Douglas Santos was monitored by the scouts of Barcelona. For the player, it is normal to be valued after an important achievement, but he’s fully focused at Atlético Mineiro. After winning the Gold medal with the Seleção, Douglas expressed his desire to fight for the Brasileirão and Copa do Brasil this year.
Douglas is being monitored by Barcelona since March, when he played friendlies for Brazil’s Olympic team. In the United States, he was scouted during the friendly against Panama when Dunga handed him a start. Other clubs in Europe like Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool, Arsenal and Valencia have also expressed an interest in the player.
Douglas said: “Everyone would be valued after such an achievement. Everyone committed to the full, gave life, blood on the field. I’m happy here, my focus is here. The future belongs to God and I leave it in his hands. Now you go in search of other dreams, win the Brazilian Championship and Copa do Brasil.”
