“I know I’ve made mistakes, but I’m moving forward again. It’s very easy for me at Santos.

“I’m very young, playing football gives me happiness and I need to be back playing. I decided it was time to come back, while also thinking about the World Cup.

“I went wrong as soon as I left the bench for Inter, but I apologised the next day. The best quality of a man is to apologise after making a mistake and learn from it.”
