Brazil needs authentic, lucid and charismatic idols like Richarlison


New fan favorite, the press and social networks save the pleasure of applauding a great player

“I speak English, my friend.”

Richarlison’s statement at a press conference has become a meme. He was amusingly told by a foreign reporter who claimed he didn’t speak Portuguese.

How to resist the gamer’s cheeky humor? He has the authenticity of a simple man.

One of the forward’s virtues is not to feign sophistication just because he’s become famous and a millionaire.

Avoid the mistake so common among footballers that they create a mask of dislike.

Richarlison continues with his feet on the ground, the joy of a little boy from the plains, his empathetic gaze on those around him.

He doesn’t feel the egoic need to show off, flaunt and humiliate himself in order to assert himself as special. She knows it is—that’s it.

Shrewd, the athlete is aware of his own value and demonstrates that he does not want constant applause to reiterate it.

Only people who are emotionally stable and connected with their essence can achieve such detachment.

Richarlisson left little Nova Venécia to win the world, but he takes with him that boy who sold sweets and ice cream door to door to help the aunt who raised him.

He is part of an elite, however, he remains people like us, unlike many sports colleagues who deny their origins, lose their identity and become unpleasant figures.

In a sense, the idol who earns the equivalent of R $ 40 million a year in salaries alone continues to be the same Charlinho of times of poverty and big dreams.

He is committed to helping people close to him and even strangers. For example, he manages a farm that serves as a guesthouse for families with cancer patients in Barretos (SP).

An advocate for science, he used his public image to raise money for USP Vida, a project that produced tests, vaccines and respirators during the covid-19 pandemic.

It is politicized and makes a relevant social discourse. On social media and in interviews, Richarlison takes a stand in favor of the environment and in the fight against racism.

She encourages her admirers to exercise solidarity. On the occasion of the tragic floods in Petrópolis (RJ), he asked for donations from the thousands of homeless and injured people.




Brazil needs authentic, lucid and charismatic idols like Richarlison

In addition to these qualities, he is always in a good mood, likes to flirt with anonymous and famous people, knows how to laugh at himself. How can you not like such a genuine and friendly guy?

The Brazil of web celebrities with attacks of stardom, of TV actors who mistreat journalists and ignore fans, of complacent ex-competitors of reality shows, needs Richarlison a lot, a player who seems to take the field more for love than for money.

We ordinary Brazilians deserve to be represented around the world by those who appreciate our people, our culture and our passion for football. From idols linked to our rich history.

In his debut match in the Qatar Cup, the number 9 of the Selection managed to unite a divided country. People in an ideological war had the same reaction when they saw him shine on the field: they screamed and smiled.

For a few moments, we were all happy together again. It’s been a while, huh… Fly, pigeon! And take Brazil with you.
