Fiorentina’s Felipe Melo has rapidly grown into one of Serie A’s strongest midfielders. Now he is also a first-choice player for the Brazilian national team and an object of desire for many top European clubs.
“Very soon I will wear the shirt of one of the most prestigious clubs in the world,” he was quoted as saying. However, the player wanted to clear things up on Fiorentina’s official website.
“After reading what’s been reported by some sections of the Brazilian media, which turned around some things I said after the match with Brazil, I am very disappointed they misunderstood me,” he said.
“I said I was happy to have reached the national team thanks to Fiorentina. I feel satisfied. I already wear two very prestigious shirts, whether it’s Fiorentina or Brazil I’m playing for.”
