It was an incredible moment in my life. I thanked God and my family and everyone who accompanied me on the way there. Danilo got injured just before the end of the first half and I barely had time to stretch and warm up a bit. But in those few seconds, I thought about everything I had done to make this dream come true. And of course I was a bit nervous. Me in the Seleçao! Together with players like Neymar and Vinicius Junior. What a great day for me and my family!<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Was that even more moving than winning the U17 World Cup at home in Brazil five years ago?<\/b> <b>Back then, you set up the goal in stoppage time to win the final 2-1 against Mexico.<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>It's difficult to compare the two. Of course, it was also a very emotional occasion, because when do you ever become world champion, and then in front of your compatriots? But it was the U17s, not the big Seleçao that every boy in Brazil dreams of.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2024/11/13/couto-aus-der-borussia/Couto2.png\" data-assetref=\"Couto2-1731409629639\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Pelé, Garrincha, Zico, Ronaldo - there are all kinds of legends in Brazil that young players are only too keen to emulate.<\/b> <b>Who is your idol?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Cristiano Ronaldo! Yes, not a Brazilian, but a Portuguese. That may be unusual, but Cristiano is also an unusual footballer. Look at how he moves on and off the pitch, how he organises his whole life around giving everything for the sport. How hard he works for it, even now at the age of 39. But I also admire Neymar, a great player and person, he helped me a lot when I made my debut for the national team. I enjoyed playing with him. You can tell how important he is by how much the Seleçao have missed him recently because of that serious knee injury. Neymar and Cristiano are the two footballers who inspire me the most.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Even if they play in a different position to you?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Yes, but at the end of the day we all play football and they do things on the pitch that nobody else can do. That's what counts.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>What type of footballer are you?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>I'm a right winger who tries to interpret the game in a modern way, i.e. to do the defensive work at the back without making mistakes and to bring in creative elements up front. My speed and technique help me to do this. I'll do everything I can to experience great times with the Borussia fans in the Bundesliga and the Champions League.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>You signed a contract with Manchester City at the age of 18 and have been loaned out to other clubs ever since, to Girona, Braga and then Girona again.<\/b> <b>Spain and Portugal are also a long way from Brazil, but the temperature and language are very similar.<\/b> <b>And Germany?<\/b> <b>It must be a completely different world for you...<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>That's true. Portugal was very close to my home country, there are a lot of Brazilians playing in the league there, and in Spain too. Germany is a completely new experience, a different culture and language, and it's supposed to get a bit colder in winter. But my world is football, and it's played according to the same rules in Germany as in Brazil, Spain or Portugal. Of course, I still have to get used to certain things here and there, but that will come.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2024/11/13/couto-aus-der-borussia/Couto1.png\" data-assetref=\"Couto1-1731409652643\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Before you signed for Manchester, Pep Guardiola said you had to learn to speak English better than Gabriel Jesus.<\/b> <b>In Girona, you delighted the fans by learning a bit of Catalan.<\/b> <b>And now?<\/b> <b>How are your German skills?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Ha, good point! I'm still struggling a bit with the German language. Nobody in the team speaks Portuguese apart from me, but in the dressing room we communicate in English, which works very well. And German? Hmm. I don't know much more than \u2018thank you\u2019 and \u2018good morning\u2019 yet. I have to and will work on that.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>What did you already know about the Bundesliga before the season?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>At home, we tended to pay attention to the Premier League or the Spanish league. I know the German clubs from the Champions League, especially Bayern and Dortmund. Big clubs that everyone in Brazil knows, of course. That's why I was so pleased to receive the offer from Borussia. As far as the other teams in the league are concerned, it's still new territory for me, a great adventure.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Which Dortmund players did you already know during your time in Spain?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Pretty much all of them! Borussia is a big club and didn't reach the final of the Champions League last season by chance. Marcel Sabitzer, Niki Süle, Greg Kobel, Julian Brandt and Waldemar Anton. And of course Gio Reyna, he played with the USA at the Copa America in the summer. I could list the whole team now, but you know them well enough yourself. They are all excellent footballers and I enjoy being with them every day.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>There is a very special relationship between Dortmund and your home country.<\/b> <b>No other nation has produced as many players as Brazil.<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>I'm aware of that, and of course I know a few names from the past. Tinga, Evanilson or Marcio Amoroso. And of course Dedé and Felipe Santana, I had a churrasco, a Brazilian barbecue, with both of them in the summer.

It was an incredible moment in my life. I thanked God and my family and everyone who accompanied me on the way there. Danilo got injured just before the end of the first half and I barely had time to stretch and warm up a bit. But in those few seconds, I thought about everything I had done to make this dream come true. And of course I was a bit nervous. Me in the Seleçao!

Yes, not a Brazilian, but a Portuguese. That may be unusual, but Cristiano is also an unusual footballer. Look at how he moves on and off the pitch, how he organises his whole life around giving everything for the sport. How hard he works for it, even now at the age of 39. But I also admire Neymar, a great player and person, he helped me a lot when I made my debut for the national team. I enjoyed playing with him. You can tell how important he is by how much the Seleçao have missed him recently because of that serious knee injury. Neymar and Cristiano are the two footballers who inspire me the most.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Even if they play in a different position to you?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Yes, but at the end of the day we all play football and they do things on the pitch that nobody else can do.

My speed and technique help me to do this. I'll do everything I can to experience great times with the Borussia fans in the Bundesliga and the Champions League.<br>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>You signed a contract with Manchester City at the age of 18 and have been loaned out to other clubs ever since, to Girona, Braga and then Girona again.<\/b> <b>Spain and Portugal are also a long way from Brazil, but the temperature and language are very similar.<\/b> <b>And Germany?<\/b> <b>It must be a completely different world for you...<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>That's true. Portugal was very close to my home country, there are a lot of Brazilians playing in the league there, and in Spain too. Germany is a completely new experience, a different culture and language, and it's supposed to get a bit colder in winter. But my world is football, and it's played according to the same rules in Germany as in Brazil, Spain or Portugal. Of course, I still have to get used to certain things here and there, but that will come.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/profis/2024/11/13/couto-aus-der-borussia/Couto1.png\" data-assetref=\"Couto1-1731409652643\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Before you signed for Manchester, Pep Guardiola said you had to learn to speak English better than Gabriel Jesus.<\/b> <b>In Girona, you delighted the fans by learning a bit of Catalan.<\/b> <b>And now?<\/b> <b>How are your German skills?<\/b><br>\n<\/p>\n<p>Ha, good point!
