The Cruzeiro midfielder has highlighted the strong relationship with the family and the desire for Brazil to win the tournament again after 14 years
Brazil begins this Sunday (28) the walk to the U-20 World Cup, which takes place in Chile. The selection enters the field to face Mexico and goes in search of the exhaustive championship of the competition, which has not won since 2011.
Attention to the title is one of the great motivations for Murilo. The 19 -year -old midfielder from Cruzeiro hopes to help the team win the World Cup, even if the appetizers do not start the games.
“I came only with the thought of being able to do my best on the field, being able to help my companions, who play or not playing. My main goal is to return with the title to Brazil. Our last was in 2011 and I hope to return to Brazil,” he stressed.
The player is very praised by the coach of Cruzeiro Leonardo Jardim and had his first opportunity in the national team in July of this year. From the last call, Murilo was thinking about the World Cup and remembered the emotion he had when he saw his name in the Ramon Menezes list.
“I was very anxious by the penultimate call. Since I left Atibaia I was thinking about the World Cup and being able to receive this call from Professor Ramon made me very happy. I called my father and I said I was summoned to the World Cup. My father cried, we shared this feeling.

Family dream
One of the great forces of Murilo is in his family. Born in Brasilia, the midfielder had to face his parents a few years after his parents. Now, with all together with Belo Horizonte, the player commented on the meetings and the dream that everyone lives together.
“There are moments when we go home and sit down to talk. Let’s say we are living a dream, because we asked God a lot for this moment that I am living today. Sometimes we are without believing, I speak with my mother and I say that it is a long time what I am living.
