Flamengo's undisputed midfielder, five-time champion Kleberson, stated this afternoon in his post-training press conference that Sunday's match against Atlético-PR at Maracanã will be special. The number 15 player was developed in the youth ranks of the Paraná team.

"It has a different flavor, for sure. It was the team that shaped me for football. I'm very grateful to Atlético-PR; I owe them a lot, because they were the team that launched me into football. But I'm also very grateful to Flamengo, who welcomed me during a very difficult time in my career."

Kleberson was full of praise for striker Adriano, who could make his debut on Sunday.

"Adriano is a winner. I'm looking forward to playing alongside him again. We played together on the national team, and I'm really looking forward to playing alongside him again. I'm sure he'll be a huge success here at Flamengo and help us score lots of goals. We can tell he's very happy."
