The problem was that the canterano did not finish to convince to play in the first team since, with the 19 years that had then, seemed too green to play to the maximum level.

Thus, the Port wine could see forced to sell to the Brazilian side this summer, to avoid the risk to lose him without seeing neither an alone euro by him a year later.
