If I looked back three months, I wouldn’t have imagined being here. It touched a very emotional side of me, living out that childhood dream. We look at our past, look at how hard we worked, and feel very grateful, and at the same time I feel very motivated.

It’s the beginning of a job, the beginning of a journey, and I hope I can be ready and in good shape to give my best and continue (in the group),” he said. With the goal of establishing himself in the team, Gabriel Sara said he can play in different positions and thus make Ancelotti’s job easier. "During my time in England – he spent a period at Norwich after transferring from São Paulo – I improved a lot technically and gained more maturity.

I always try to learn as much as possible, in any new position. Nowadays, a player needs to adapt to any of them. ” Midfielder says he is ready to play in several positions Credits: Rafael Ribeiro/CBF Calmly and confidently, Gabriel Sara explained the main reasons that led him to leave Norwich and move to Galatasaray.
