A dislocated right shoulder in a friendly against Estonia for the Brazilian national team kept Kleberson out of action during one of his best spells since joining Flamengo in 2007. The number 15 was expected to return next year, but his recovery has been better than expected, and coach Andrade could be able to use him for Sunday's game against Goiás. Despite this, he doesn't want to rush things and knows that starting is unlikely.

Kleberson isn't even seeking a spot on the bench, but he does want to help the team in any way he can during this final stretch. However, while returning to the red-and-black squad is met with joy and relief, the same cannot be said for the Brazilian national team. Injured, he was left out of Dunga's last call-ups and admits he may have lost his place.

"The team is in excellent form and we're not going to rush anything. I'll keep working hard so that, who knows, I might get another chance. If I'm included in the squad, it's because I'm truly capable of stepping onto the field and helping Flamengo," the player said in an interview with the website UOL Esporte.

This was the player's third injury to the same area. Despite this, he's not discouraged. On the contrary, he draws strength from his family and teammates to motivate him to return. "I always try to focus on my recovery and think about my return. I have the support of my family during these difficult times, as well as my Flamengo teammates. My motivation grows every day as I realize I'm better and recovering quickly," he stated.
