Fred confirmed that he wanted to return to Brazil, because his career was too short and he did not play in the Libertadores: “Maybe in the future, I don’t know yet. I left Brazil early, my career was too short. I still wanted to play in Brazil. I did not play, for example , CONMEBOL Libertadores. I didn’t have that privilege. I played one or two Brasil Cup matches, some Brazilian championship matches and then I left Brazil.”

Despite his turbulent departure from the Minas Gerais team, he confirmed his affection: “I have great affection for Atlético MG, although my departure was turbulent, I always rooted for Atlético-MG. Who knows in the future. Or in Internacional itself, I have a lot of emotion. I can still say, as much as I am an athlete, maybe my first choice is Internacional, because of the way I left Inter, how they welcomed me there.
