Hulk was approached to play for Portugal but we do not know by whom, says agent – Report
Agent of FC Porto star Hulk, Teodoro http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 team but recently revealed that the Seleccao offered him to
play for them.
Arguably the most talented player in Portugal at the moment, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436 causes a sensation in nearly every game he plays in.
Whether be it unleashing rockets from 35-yards or teasing opponents with his array of bamboozling skills, the striker has been in the airwaves for one reason or another.
Also involved with the Brazilian National team setup, Hulk recently disclosed that early in his career, he was approached by Portuguese football officials, who offered him to don the famous Navigators’ jersey.
However the former Tokyo Verdy man refused to forsake the country of his birth and believed that one day he would play for the five-time World Cup winners.
Following up on his client’s revelations is Teodoro Fonseca, who claims that although the player was approached by someone to play for Portugal, the identity of the person is still unclear.
Speaking to reporters, the representative said that Hulk had been offered the chance to play for the Portuguese National team under http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Queiroz but instead the forward chose to represent Brazil.
"I do not know how long it was. Carlos Queiroz was the coach and Hulk was tapped to play there. At the time, it became clear that Hulk would not become a naturalized Portuguese http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Citizen-c38808 because his priority was the Brazil team,” he said.
Fonseca also revealed that his client was asked to represent http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Canaries-c38723.
“He had the opportunity to become a naturalized Japanese citizen but he did not, because his priority has always been Brazil. The invitation was not official, it was just a survey, a conversation. Who? I do not know, but there was a survey,” Teodoro Fonseca
was quoted as saying.
Although Hulk had the opportunity to play for Portugal and Japan, he opted in favour of Brazil, where his appearances so far have been limited.
The Dragao star has continually been overlooked for a spot in major competitions and usually takes to the pitch in friendly games. However his recent form has shown that he can ply his trade at the highest level, making his inclusion in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mano-c23341 Menezes’s plans
even more imminent.
However till he makes his breakthrough on the International stage, Hulk will have to be content with a bit part role for the country, for whom he forego the chance to represent http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.
