Reinier’s father: “Something strange happens at Borussia Dortmund”

Reinier’s loan at Dortmund is not being satisfactory for either party. The Brazilian, signed by Real Madrid in January 2020, is not doing well with the Erasmus in the Bundesliga that other players such as Carvajal, Achraf or Mayoral took advantage of so well in the past. The last pearl that the whites signed from Brazilian football is going almost unnoticed in the year and a half he has been at the Aurinegro club and his father, Mauro Brasilia, has exploded. “There’s something really weird going on there. It’s a shame! For both of us!”, has said in a statement to Goal.

Mauro believes that 19-year-old Reinier “could bring his different style of play to the team, very necessary in some games. He knows as few the idea of ​​ball possession, of game control. It seems that Dortmund have not understood it, they have not realized this good option“.

His father regrets that Dortmund is not taking advantage of Reinier Jesus, a player sought after by many other teams on the Old Continent: “Despite this small delay in the beginning of his professional career in Europe, Reinier is still a prestigious name in other big clubs“says Mauro Brasilia, who adds:”Borussia loses day by day the opportunity to develop and enjoy another talented young man, maintaining his tradition, even if the footballer is not his heritage. Something very strange is happening there. It is a pity! For both!”.

Since he came to the German club in the summer of 2020 on loan for two years, Reinier has barely played for Dortmund 405 minutes spread over 25 games. A few isolated moments in which he has only been able to demonstrate his quality with one goal: against Arminia Bielefeld last February. Neither Lucien Favre when he arrived, nor Edin Terzic when he took over in the middle of last season nor Marco Rose are now trusting a player for whom Madrid paid 30 million euros to Flamengo, hoping to repeat the experience of Vinicius and Rodrygo. His loan from Dortmund, which was agreed for two seasons, expires at the end of the current season.
