Moscow Communications Director CSKA Kirill Braido He wrote in his Telegram channel that midfielder Mateus Alves will not be joining the Brazilian national team (until he’s 20).
We always respect the National Team Institute with great respect and are proud that our footballer has received a challenge. However, now our shared priority with the player is rapid adaptation and results. The Brazilian youth team’s next training session is ahead of the official FIFA football season, while the Russian season has already started, and the coaching staff is counting on a player. We are convinced that in the best interests of the club and the national team, it would be right for Mateus Alves to remain at CSKA. Remember that today, Alves’ call-up to the Brazilian youth team’s closest friendlies became known.
