Reinier’s fear of signing for Madrid and his white idols

Sometimes dreams come true, and if not you ask Reinier Who was going to tell him that after a visit to the Bernabeu with his selection, two years later he would end up playing for what was always his love club in Europe. His father has opened the doors of his house in Brazil to the AS diary to tell the most intimate of his son. From the fear he felt when he learned of the interest of the Real Madrid, to his idols in the white club. (The day Juni Calafat and Madrid fell in love with Reinier)

The interest of Madrid:In December. Before we did not believe that a club such as Madrid had an interest in Reinier. When the news came to us it was a party because I want a team as big as Real does not happen to anyone. “

The first to find out about the possible signing:I. The first thing we did was talk to Reinier, over the phone because he was on vacation at the beach, and at first he got a little scared, but then he understood that the Madrid project would be the best thing that could happen to him. “

Reinier's picture at the Bernabéu:I was with the Brazilian national team and they went to the stadium. What a coincidence, because today is one step away from stepping on the grass of the Bernabéu! “

Your visit to the Bernabéu:Yes, in February or March 2019. I was delighted with everything I saw. José Ángel Sánchez (General Director of Real Madrid) treated us very well. It was a wonderful experience. I hope he is closer to everything now. “

The European Reinier team: “From Madrid, especially since the time of Cristiano. He also has Zidane as an important figure, especially because he looks a bit like his playing style and height, with a very classic football. Then Madrid was always the team he followed and always watched their games. Then there were others from Europe, such as Borussia de Dortmund, Bayern Munich, Juventus … The best Milan too, and now with (Lucas) Paquetá, who is our friend. But Real Madrid was always the team he liked best. “

Who did you want to look like as a child? “TO Kaka. There has always been much talk that they have a very similar style. I showed him videos of Zidane, Van Basten, Guti, which is also a phenomenon and I really liked what he did. Reinier had these Madrid players as a reference. ”

What kind of player is it? It has always been an attacker. In the middle, not the bands. And more midfielder than forward. “
