Elias was presented at CT Joaquim Grava in the early afternoon of Thursday as a football star. Countless Corinthians leaders and directors on your tail, dozens of press professionals to listen to you... Everything an important player has when he gets to a club. And he did not hide the joy of returning to São Jorge Park.
For about 40 minutes, the steering wheel gave love statements to Timão's shirt, to the joy of President Mário Gobbi Filho who accompanied him in front of him, sitting among journalists. These statements will certainly be welcomed by the fans.
– The Corinthians represent everything to me. If I'm a football player it's because I had a club in my childhood, which was Corinthians. From there came a great feeling for football, I watched the games, via Biro-Biro, Marcio Bittencourt, Edu, Vampeta, Rincón... If it weren't for Corinthians or football, I'd like it – he said.
Next, asked by a journalist if he had the face of the club, Elias did not hesitate:
– I have the face, the body, the heart, the street style... I'm a maloqueiro – he guaranteed, with a smile on his face.
Statements of love aside, the new reinforcement has shown to be aware that it will be pressed to return to the club. After revealing that the directors have already talked about ‘win’ and ‘play well’ in the walk from the bodybuilding room to the press room, the player talked about it.
– Corinthianss is pressure. I barely arrived and have to be the lead, but I have confidence in myself, in the coach who knows how to take my best – Elijah warned, who still commented on working for the fourth time with the current Alvinegro commander.
– Mano asked for me on the Black Bridge. He's the one who took me to the national team, and it was with him that I reacquired my great football in Flamengo and it was him again now. We have everything to do a great job at Corinthians and conquer a lot together again – completed.
Elias also commented on the fact that Flamengo did not make an official proposal to his father (Eliseus), since he would have to define his own destination on his return to Brazil.
– God is so good that he didn't give me that choice, it was going to be hard, he just gave me a chance that was Corinthians, I didn't even have to think. We are sad for our former companions (for the elimination in Liberators), and I wish them luck, only with the work that achieves the goals – he recalled.
Finally, the steering wheel celebrated the fact that it was released from Sporting (POR), which did everything to keep it in Europe, but without giving it a chance in the main team.
– Looks like I lost 30 kilos with the termination. It's nice to be in an environment where they give you affection, they charge you, but they also give you a chance. I'm not sorry. If God wanted it that way, it's because he has something big for us... now then be happy for the return, the most important is that it ended well – finished.
