“This thing with Fofão is an old date. I’ve made the invitation a few times and I think it’s important that she participates due to the respect she has from the players, the staff and the public, and I think she can do a lot.

However, despite this and the fact she studies marketing at a University of São Paulo, Fofão concluded a course for the coaches conducted by the Brazilian Volleyball Confederation (CBV) in Belo Horizonte, in March. So, maybe she will change her mind…
