One of Flamengo's new signings for next season, five-time champion Kléberson is eager to don the red-and-black jersey. He's been training with the group since last year and can't wait to get on the field.

- "I'm really excited. I'm very happy to be part of Flamengo's history. I'm going to work really hard this year to achieve the Club's goals."

With significant achievements in his career, the player doesn't feel guaranteed a place in the starting lineup. For Kléberson, the red-and-black team will make the difference.

- "Flamengo's squad is very strong, ideal for a season in which we'll be competing in many competitions. The club has put together an excellent squad, blending experience with youth. My starting spot will depend on my performance on the field. I hope to please Joel."

The player knows the responsibility he carries, as a World Champion athlete.

- "I know my responsibility, but I believe in my potential and my qualities. I will work hard to earn the trust of Joel, my teammates and the fans."
