Vincent Aboubacar, a former teammate of Danilo Pereira at FC Porto between 2014 and 2020, spoke at the team About the 30-year-old Portuguese player from Paris Saint-Germain. Lucid remembers that Danilo Pereira is not the player who will make amazing matches, but stresses that it is necessary to strike a balance. He is very smart, knows how to compensate and does not take himself for the player is not. For Abu Bakr, he is a true leader who is able to reframe everyone without distinction of rank.
Abu Bakr ” If it is necessary to shout, he does it, and it does not matter who the interlocutor is in front of him.”
“Danilo won’t give you a brotherhood game, but he balances his team’s game well by covering his center back if he goes out, for example. He does what he has to do well. He is aware of his qualities and what he can’t do.
He is a natural leader. He says what he’s going to say and doesn’t hesitate to substitute or even reframe in the match. If he has to scream, he does and it doesn’t matter who the interlocutor is in front of him. But always for the good of the team, never flaunt it. »
Abubakar very well summed up who Danilo Pereira is. It remains to be seen if he is a good fit for PSG and what the club wants. But the Portuguese won his place. The intelligence of his game allows him to make up for his shortcomings and he does so well. He’s never stood out like Kylian Mbappe Or otherwise, but in his place, he shines with his qualities without ever trying what he has not mastered. We’ve often seen him raise his voice, even above Lionel Messi, which means the 30-year-old’s attitude has been perfect.
It does not distinguish between Colin dghba And Neymar, for him, the team is the priority and that’s what has allowed him to perform this season in the collective nothingness. Paris was lucky to have him. It now remains to be seen if he has the right technical profile for this club because we have also seen him too often slow down the game this season. It’s up to the next boss to find out. Meanwhile, Danilo is not hiding, he is there for the team and never takes the spotlight.
