Goalkeeper Lucas Perri started his activities for the Brazilian National Team. The athlete who played in the last round of Serie A of the Brazilian Championship, performed at dawn in Belém (PA). Yesterday (4th) Perri did a regenerative workout at Mangueirão Stadium. It is the first time that Botafogo’s standout in the Brasileirão wears the yellow shirt. The goalkeeper did not hide his emotion and said he was fulfilling a dream.

“The Brazilian team is every player’s dream. It’s every player’s childhood dream. I’m very grateful to God for making this dream come true. If you told me a year and six months ago, when I was arriving at Náutico, that in a year and a half I would be wearing the shirt of the national team, I wouldn’t believe it. I’m really happy, enjoying this moment a lot, now it’s time to work and bring these victories to Brazil,” he celebrated.
