Wesley explains that “last season” was decisive for Cruzeiro’s choice


The striker, who was traded to Palmeiras, arrives with title holder status for the Celeste side

Hired by Palmeiras, striker Wesley granted his first interview as a Cruzeiro player on Tuesday. The player explained the reasons why he chose Raposa and, according to him, the celestial results of last season were decisive. Check what was said:




– What caught my attention the most was what Cruzeiro did last season. We can have a very bold idea of ​​a game and we can buy the idea of ​​the project, from the coaching staff, to take Cruzeiro this season where they should never have gone. I’m ready to be part of it – said the athlete.

Wesley comes to the Minas Gerais team with title holder status. With a negotiated value of more than 16 million rupees, the purchase of the striker was even the biggest investment of Ronaldo’s management in Raposa, at least until now.

The team commanded by Paulo Pezzolano makes its season debut on January 21, against Patrocinense, in Patrocínio-MG. Although the star’s main goal is to stay in Série A, Raposa is looking for the state title, which he hasn’t arrived since 2019.
