The number 2 jersey has once again become synonymous with quality at Flamengo. Leonardo Moura is in great form, already reminding Flamengo fans of the time when he was considered the "best right-back in Brazil." Feeling at peace with his life, Leo continues to pursue his goal of making history at Flamengo. After his fifth Rio de Janeiro title and sixth Brazilian title, he dreams of a second Libertadores and a second World Cup.
A key player in the schemes of every coach who has worked at the club since his arrival, Leo is back at his best. Feeling useful and happy with the good moment he's in, the full-back dedicates his great performances to his family and teammates.
"The good performances are the result of hard work. I'm managing to assimilate what Andrade asks me to do on the field, and I also credit this to a good psychological aspect. I'm in a good headspace, happy with my family, my wife, my daughters, and that helps any player improve their form," he said.
Praised for his offensive power, speed, and skill, Leonardo Moura relies on the defense to effectively perform his role in attack.
"I'm trying to go after my opponents in every game. I rely on my teammates to close the spaces on the right when I advance, and that makes it easier to play a better game," he explained.
Having spent five years at Gávea, Leo has already played 263 matches for Flamengo, scoring 36 goals and providing 46 assists. In 2010, he played 13 matches, scoring two goals and providing one decisive assist.
