Brazilian midfielder Paulinho spoke of the British newspaper “The Guardian”, in an interview showing that at the age of 19 he wanted to quit football, and reveals details about the transfer to Barcelona.
He has discovered that he was racially abused in Lithuania and that in Poland he was not paid, so he wanted to give up football, the Express broadcast.
When I was 19, I didn't want to play soccer anymore. In Lithuania I was sexually abused, in Poland I didn't get paid, and I thought: I don't need this. I told my family that I would stop playing soccer. My wife stood in and said, What can you do? The only thing you can do is play football”, he found out.
He has also shown how he repeatedly asked his former coach at the Chinese club, Guangzhou, Scolar, to let him go because it was Barcelona.
My representatives called me. My answer was: When you have something concrete, we'll sit down and decide, but now I don't need anything crazy about my career. I had three or four years in my contract. It was clear: either I would go to Barcelona or I would be left with nothing. They were on the knockout site at the Champions of Asia League and Scolar wanted to keep me, but I knew it was a special opportunity. I'm 29 years old, it's Barcelona. I kept saying: This is Barcelona. We're talking Barcelona”, he added.
