After the physical training of the Brazilian National Team players, this Monday (9), at Arena Pantanal, Arsenal striker, Gabriel Jesus, gave a press conference. The athlete said he was living a new phase in his life as a “happy and fulfilled family man" and stated that, in relation to the Brazilian squad, he continues to seek to evolve more and more.
“What I learned is that there is no time to regret or to enjoy too much. Every time you come to the national team, you have to demonstrate [your talent]. It doesn"t matter if you scored a goal, you have to repeat it and improve in the next game. That"s the high level. Not only in the national team, it"s like that in Europe, in Brazil, in football. If you aspire to achieve great things… it"s very difficult to get into the national team. Staying there is even more so. I"ve been evolving, as a person and as a player. I"d rather not stay talking about my position, but being there to help in any position the coach chooses."

On a daily basis, you see the quality, where he sees certain points on the field, some players in certain points on the field. It was a shock, but very positive", praised the player.
