On Friday we caught up with Rafael Veloso. The young goalkeeper guaranteed that his side is always looking to give 100% and revealed his pride in representing the Lions on the international stage.
What does it mean to play for Sporting in Europe?
Firstly it is a real honour for me to represent Sporting, but
it is even better in a European competition. We want to show
that we are a decent side, so we have to fight to do as best
as we can.
Why is the NextGen Series so important?
It gives us visibility. In the NextGen Series we can show our
worth and, at the same time, we can develop as footballers in
what is a really high quality competition.
What would you say you have already done for Sporting?
I have stopped lots of teams from scoring (laughs). For
Sporting I always do my best, no matter who we are facing.
What has been your most memorable moment so far in a Sporting
shirt?
Winning the National Championship with our Juvenile team. It
was a moment that I will never forget.
What do the fans mean to the team?
The fans are a great help. It is great to feel their support
and together we can celebrate many more wins to come.
Why is the Sporting/Puma Academy so important?
It gives us all the conditions that we need to grow as
athletes.
