Of the road but how is he really known. Began a miser the little magician make a i believe a ball chill you born in rio he grew up in a troubled district. It was there you see you. Didnt see it in the other butts nearby was an iconic source of inspiration my father simply walked by the one in the sun ill make maki signing on the scale of all your mobile and from rigorous you will fit together with 2 new with. A world famous star for the punters league the little magician. Yeah im really happy to be welcome says this kickoff special about buy ins new number 10. Munich is home now fulfilling. The people here in germany are very fair minded and really beautiful that my family and i have been for a few walks. To know this is he was. Really enjoying it. Hes looking the part in later posing as well. Yeah i like them they suited me well. Well that was very cool the wife like to walk on the benches its a big traditional event in the city and the country and it was just nice to be there taking part in the festivities. I think everyone who goes along and joins in ends up enjoying it. The october 1st has always played a role in helping you buy and stars sets in and let loose. Those who can squint to figure a little hose if it were to give. His teammates give him plenty of praise but on and off the page. Everyones been so welcoming all the people at the club the fans the players and the staff weve got a very warm reception from everybody thats also really helped to settle in i think thats the most important thing. He disclosed it feels like a family sensation saying. A lot for mean. That all sounds well and good but how is the little magician feeling on the pitch he made a slow start to his buying career but then exploded into full buying continue to have an up and down season his addition could make the difference. The more he gets used to the bonus league or the better the brazilian might become lets look back at where he hails from. Good c. E. O. Grew up here in rio along with his friends. In washington Thomas Francisco and from minister ice and i came to rio for trouble with Vasco Da Gama weve been friends ever since. Parents and brothers were very kind to me i spent more time in his place and i love accommodation. We hung about 3 other much of the time on this very street and their houses at the end. Its not a particularly safe neighborhood its a bit dangerous. Moment down the street. Just hoping you would see in for an unpleasant surprise but you. Have all his future wife not just a bit further down sometimes we have to score here you go back home again. And then wed be running at night so i did that with a reset he said. But i was happy that. We lived in the moment there was only room for happiness. Some great childhood friends living there was still in touch and still close we grew up together. Our house was near a concrete football pitch ill be playing there almost every day with my friend. Myself and his 2 brothers would usually make it seem we never want to lease. My young age you could see he was different. With the way above average potential easy to be his teammate fascinator our quiz. My parents house was quite close to the american so the crowd at the stadium was part of the soundtrack of my youth a simple finish the season i grew up dreaming of playing there professional one day and then me saying all. I know. Im a journalist and commentator and ive been following this progress since he was a youngster constantly playing for. Hearing the crowd thats all helped to make. And then i got the chance to make the dream come true and. Could see me as journey time began brazil. When i was 6 i joined a team in my. Who already competitively and thats a huge group. Because in a few tournaments. I was invited to try again Vasco Da Gama. And i was. There a big club brought through a lot of the right players its almost. Immune to the point you consume your 1st came to my attention when i saw him playing. Here at glasgow you know from the wash i could see this kid was exceptionally talented so you study really stood out among his peers. I asked around to find out who he was and that was the 1st time i heard the name fairly. Easy i had a coach who was really important. For me sadly died since then we had marcus alexandra another great coach i had a great Time Training with him. Back a tutor but as you know i had the pleasure. In the 3 years with him watching him develop his skills his tactical awareness and general mindset. And now hes one of resilience footballs absolute top stance which world isnt. A played football there up to the ages of 11 or 12. Alls who like then i didnt really want to play football i still like what sold so much. Which. Provides the ideal foundation for a future football to build on with time and space is a premium you learn to think quickly on your feet news for you up and say it played a big party and sleeps early developments. And a lot of his qualities are basically rooted in food so they move to the food so yeah i mean i didnt want to quit for so i ended up doing both. Multiyear begin to get them out you can imagine. The little magician was a nickname he earns long before he left brazil. Because you could seemingly make a ball just disappear and pop up again somewhere else. Pulling off tricks in a game that were simply beyond other children his age and people started calling him the little magician up if you did you could get him out in one of his idols is run on denio a football magician in the previous generation i mean similar abilities also inherited the nickname. Phillips almost flawless his close control his passing his finishing his vision its all just out of the ordinary. As a plan person the nickname says her fix it for good c. E. O. s character is also said to have a magical quality so i said it was nearly. The marks amount. I think his family play i think passing that. People with their own solid sense of principle. His family his parents has been vital in helping him my time in a very down to earth actually to get it to my money to them i still feel he just you know is the quiet life very much centered around his family is a personal character trait in interviews he comes across as a really shy and reserved kind of person. That i do think they might have been bad. In 6006 it was decision time. Certainly a 14 i finally had to get up for it was just becoming too intense and from that point on i focused on the football and if. Theres a funny story from that time i remember taking part in the tournament and. Before the start they were saying that scotty knew that little kids this phillipe cuttin you know weve all been hearing about the new york going and basically won the game for us and everyones like ok his true we have to admit it the kids were really good that was the 1st time we met. Beginning of their friendship. In 2008 could senior signed for insulin still only 16 he stayed 2 more years at Vasco Da Gama on loan before making a step up. The same so i dont always dreamed of turning professional getting the chance to play at a big stadium score a goal that enjoyed the game and make the fans happy. When i 1st got that chance with vasco it was a dream come true stepping out on to the pitch for a match millions of people would be watching the stadiums packed in the crowds in full voice. Chancing in one study. That was just a beautiful moment for me for a. Parcel for vasco was like my 2nd home in brazil the club means a lot to me they phoned me as a player and on a personal level i learnt a lot there as well also at the school the half right there at the club i manged thats something thats very important. There could i mean. He said well miguel here is a boy and left as a man hes been very satisfying munching him progressed during his time here and. Then being. Here he played for vasco and theres lots of school photos. These are a few pages of philippe during his time at school here groups that shots in the reading clubs. Him in the study but many of these colleagues and theories on the Graduation Day i know moments at secondary school plays upon my goodness. Hes a great player god willing to be one of the best the world when it is time and he supported him at school as well being and his mother was a regular visit tell you that also helped only carry the man he is today discipline and determination the 2 qualities we try to instill in the boys to shoot them how well education the mind and school watched. Yes hes a role model gun from fast go to europe is the jury most every player here at. The same age could say you know had been given time to mature ahead of his move to in some land at the same time in munich by and had. Roberto frey no and lucio 3 brazilian stars on the books good t. V. I probably didnt imagine hed like to be following in their footsteps but now hes the 13th player from brazil to sign for germanys champions. A few people of bahrain particularly see whos got a brazilian passport and speaks portuguese. Then there was russia. And lucio as well he was very positive about coming here. To take. Off to italy england and spain munich is could seen as 1st stop in germany and what better club to start a Business League or adventure with. A new brazilian stuff. So what are the other brazilian legends from byron fake. I think its great continues here and 1st. Very lucky that. I dont know how long sporting director. And his science put together player that right at the close of the transfer window hats off to. Them we could see news of plans highly minute for the number tension you can with the close control. Quick. You can score goals if. If he plays the way he did for liverpool then weve really hit the jackpot and 16 more to get people from Giovanni Elba and paulo sergio know a thing or 2 about trial should by and becoming part of the family is important they village could seno to embrace the couple so me as i me are we are who we are. Told him. Well the 1st thing he has to do here is learn german. But this fish think its important to learn the language. He said hes trying to do that. And i think one see understands a bit of the language and culture to be very much on the right road. Support the belief that seem to be i think business school. Really important then i am really enjoying this little else. That. Could see as european odyssey finally began in 2010. It was a tough time for instance which led just one of the travelling the Champions League but then that team was dismantled so he arrived at the club in transition here going to make you and it was difficult we think you. Won most of the moving to a different country when i went to enter for example i was 1718 years old but i did leave a place youve been familiar with for 18 years of your life. That was a difficult period for new club a new language to live. Shortly after that the whole family moved to italy to be nearby and then him support yeah you are back to this morning it was starting to play well again. But i sent him off to spain on a lot of. You but i stayed in place by. Half a season on load espanol poff the next one back in milan and then liverpool came calling. 2030 a year a good c. E. O. Speak great. Give you all. That was when the media started talking him up again saying he should be back in the frame from brazil the coach should be keeping a close eye on him myself a player who can make the difference. In the chain walked off so there was also being carried along by the passion of the liverpool fans watching me i think that was when he was most comfortable expressing himself out on the pitch the fans idolized showed up last year the give me still feel to call Magic Moments in red bull sr with more than a little help from coach jurgen klopp. Local club this knowledge i can say really just some of it hes a great coach and exceptional at what he does where. It was a very enjoyable period of my life working with him and i learned a lot. Pays attention to the most to minute details and above all as if hes absolutely focused all. These managed to take the club up to the heights theyre out today thanks 1st and foremost to that mentality and maintaining that social focus its something i always carry with me it was very important. Since then could cheney has been regarded as a global star on the pitch and in the realm of social media the brazilian has more than 21000000 followers on his instagram there his followers get an insight into can see as personal by. His favorite subject matter by far is his family. Well now theyre the most important people in my life my parents my wife my brothers my daughters we go through everything together. Could see i was Instagram Account has more followers than byatts on the other hand though his signing swiftly recalled but his League Champions into the social media stratosphere because of say that within a day of announcing the transfer that hit the 100000000 fan milestone Facebook Instagram twitter and other platforms combined thats a benchmark. And then theres that number 10 shirt currently selling like hotcakes could seno is boosting boy in more ways than 1. 2018 seno was on the move again. I think it was a childhood dream of phillips he always fancied playing for boss alona and such dreams can come true in life things sometimes they dont turn out so well and its tough. To say he learned from the washing up or the real point. In jewish he had to share the limelight with luminol messy and there are certain things relating to messi in the club were all aware of which didnt help as im going with you would feel. His for. The future. Talking to his father the last time we met he acknowledge felipe hadnt been at his best the bus alona and he was hoping things would improve after the call for americans what they see is the push. I think hes landed at the right club. Goalkeeping legend all of the con agrees hes returning to buy and soon as an executive board member everything makes him special yes an enormous technical ability has a great speed to perfect free kicks. But he is playing in the area of the field where by and money are the little problems in the past for the pitcher continually to scrape. On match day 5 by and play not post to cologne with a new recruit in the starting line up for the 1st time but that wasnt the only reason that made the game special. It was a really nice gesture from levy he was on a hattrick Everybody Knows how special let him get a free and designated penalty takers the opportunity he was right there to have it in the dust but instead he gave me the chance to score my 1st goal in front of our fans so it was certainly a very special moment for a manager schools and i was just really happy. And grateful. But the fans would like to see even more from the new number 10 after all its a ship but its on significant. Financial stuff like falling on a buying shit comes from the loss of responsibility. There are a club with a huge tradition and of course this was i in robins number see one of the top footballers of recent times but it means im a freak. The man on the hook on the phone i got a call from got so he told me about it and my answer was simple i said i just want whats best for the club and if you get. The number 10 shirt thats fine and so good this wont ever come in cinemas yourself so its a big challenge that hopefully i can just do my best and live up to expectations. Great expectations and also an implicit show of faith robert of course was far from the 1st by legends or don the number said. The new number 10 has flourished more in recent weeks summed up by its interim coach hans flick the signs are good. For me its a new beginning as it was a concern and again by liverpool or so is everyone here hes good for success. Sign making fans are always behind the scene with the stars do a fantastic job all across the board as a. Form of lying coach nico kovacs was a big fan of his. Views and in which people. Would have been nice to have an easy win for the bundesliga and a sensational player who will help take our team to the next level and then level him there said hes very happy he and his family got a warm welcome and everyones enjoying life there without peace of mind he can play his best football. In the world you far away from the spotlight one i wish for him is that he remains the man hes always been sound. A source of pride to trust family and a sporting idol in brazil. The way a footballer should be really only a power line out on the pitch almost invisible. Im. I mean i find myself this year im hoping for a great season with my teammates theres a lot but can happen to this subject and the bullshit in next time for a little more magic on kick off the bat. 3.
