What motivates you to work hard?

What motivates me to work hard is the thoughts of my future. I always like to think about the future and how the decisions I make now or that extra run or training session can help me in the long run and how deeply it could change my future for the better.

If you had one wish to improve your game what would it be?

I feel like one wishes to improve my game would be endurance/stamina purely because I want to be able to work 100% all game long without feeling fatigued and be able to heal and recuperate quickly after a game and be able to go the same distance the next day.

What is your biggest fear?

My biggest fear is following this dream of becoming a professional soccer player and using all this time training and working for it to go to waste and just end up getting a regular job. To me, there's no other plan than becoming a pro, and I will do whatever’s necessary in order to achieve that one goal.

What is your super strength?

I believe my super strength to be dribbling and shooting. I grew up in a Brazilian household, where we breathe football/soccer, and I've always had a ball at my feet, so dribbling was always a no-brainer for me, and my shooting was just another ability I grew into becoming great at after my parents trained me into being able to shoot with both feet.

Is your glass half full or empty?

I believe my glass to be half full, soccer wise I think that I have good enough experience in tough competitions such as MLS NEXT and have grown from playing in those atmospheres for a long time. But, I still believe I have much to improve in my game and overall understanding and I think that's what'll bring me to having full capacity of knowing the game and its tactics and taking me one step closer to becoming a professional.
