Lula’s Message to Brazilian Players: Follow Messi’s Dedication, Not Parties
Recent reports from Sport1 stated that Lionel Messi, who just won his eighth Ballon d’Or, received some motivational words from Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. Lula da Silva feels that Messi’s incredible accomplishments ought to serve as an inspiration for the “Brazilian youth” who have been pining away for their own shining moments.
Lula da Silva made remarks that appeared to address the state of Brazilian football, where Neymar and other members of the country’s golden generation are still waiting to experience the same degree of success and accolades.
The progressive leader, a well-known football fan, said, “It is not possible that Messi does not serve as an example to Brazilian players,” in his weekly social media broadcast. He emphasized Messi’s amazing accomplishments, pointing out that he won the Ballon d’Or again this year and was named a world champion last year while playing in the United States League at the age of 36.
Lula da Silva continued her discussion about Messi’s professionalism and attitude. Despite competing in what is thought to be a less competitive league, he praised Messi’s commitment and enthusiasm. He compared this to young Brazilian talents’ propensity to rise and then fade away.
According to Lula da Silva, Messi’s victories should serve as an example for young Brazilian players who leave the country to play abroad. He thinks that Messi’s accomplishments should serve as a lesson to young Brazilian football players about the importance of having professional, devoted role models. It’s an appeal to the younger generation to emulate the world-famous football player.
