After winning the league title during a four-year stint in Russia, the striker spent five years plying his trade for Shanghai SIPG in China, where he reportedly earnt a staggering £16m per season. He moved to Mineiro in February 2021 and helped his team win the Brazilian title during his first season at the club.

“I gave everything to this girl (Camila) since she came into the world. I sacrificed my dreams so many times to make her dreams come true. And here I’m not just talking about material goods, because these are easy to give when you have money, but love, affection, attention, respect… everything.
“She knew my weaknesses, insecurities, pain, fears and had my unconditional love. She managed my life, and for me everything that she said was good, it was correct, it was ethical. She was perfect in everything and I gave her the direction of my life.”
