Juventus defender, Glyon Bremer, opened his heart to talk about the scenes of his decision not to represent the Italian team, despite the attempts of the former coach of Azouri Roberto Mancini to persuade him to naturalize and join the team, in a move that has sparked a lot of controversy in recent years.
Mancini’s offer refused for personal reasons
In comments to the ESPN network, the Brazilian international explained that the idea of wearing the Azuri shirt was not comfortable for him on a personal and psychological level, saying: “The idea was on the authority, but I was born in Bahia’s heart. It was difficult to imagine myself suddenly Italian. The decision was not right for me. ”
Bremer revealed that Mancini continued with him personally and encouraged him to take the step of obtaining Italian citizenship, through his Italian wife, but the player could not accept the matter, and added: “I imagined myself in the first camp with Al -Azuri, one of them asks me: What do you do here? Frankly, I wouldn’t like it. ”
Loyalty to Brazil, despite the difficulty of competition
Although his participation with the Brazilian national team was limited to only five international matches since his first summons in September 2022, Bremer stressed his adherence to representing his country, acknowledging the fierceness of the competition in the center of the defense, in light of the presence of prominent names such as Gabriel (Arsenal) and Idir Milito (Real Madrid).
An escalating march in Calcio
Bremer joined Juventus in the summer of 2022 coming from Turin, after winning the award for the best defender in the Italian League 2021-2022 season, and continued his brilliance with the “old lady” shirt, despite suffering several impressive injuries that kept him out of some important periods during the season.
