Another reinforcement presented! Early in the afternoon of this Thursday (4), Flamengo presented the midfielder Erick Pulgar, 28 years old. In a press conference held at Ninho do Urubu, the Chilean spoke about the expectation of debuting with the Manto, the partnership with Vidal and the Nation's passion for the club. Check out some excerpts:

Main features and partnership with Vidal

"My strengths include breaking through attacking lines and constantly switching up the game to help the team. I played many matches with Vidal on the Chilean national team, but now we'll be able to enjoy our daily lives here at Flamengo. I hope to be happy with him. I spoke to my family about the atmosphere at Maracanã; it's wonderful! It's the first time I've seen fans so passionate about their club. I'm happy and ready to help." 

Why did you choose Flamengo?

"I wanted to play here because of the great club it is, its history, and its fans. Flamengo has a wonderful atmosphere. I'd already asked Isla about it and what the team was like. From then on, the desire to play here was awakened. I didn't think twice when the opportunity arose." 

Adaptation to Brazilian football

"Brazilian football is of a high standard, especially since it plays two matches a week. I'm prepared and fully prepared to play on Sundays, Wednesdays, or whenever I can." 

Physical condition

"After the holidays, I've been training hard. When I learned about the possibility of coming here, I started preparing twice as hard. I'm feeling great physically and am at the coach's disposal to decide when I should debut."
