Former CSKA Player Carvalho Discusses Brazilian Players Views on the RPL

Former CSKA Moscow footballer Daniél Carvalho shared his thoughts on Brazilian players’ perception of the Russian league.

«All Brazilians have a fondness for Russia, which is now more open than ever. It’s unfortunate that Russian clubs are currently unable to compete in European tournaments, but in Brazil, there is a positive view of your country, especially after all we have achieved there. In the past, we had doubts about Russian football, but the market has transformed. Nowadays, when an offer comes from Russia, Brazilians are quick to accept it. Today, Russian football is recognized globally,» Carvalho stated in a CSKA TV video.

Daniél Carvalho played for CSKA from 2004 to 2010, during which time he became a two-time Russian champion (2005, 2006).
