Danilo: You forgot to mention Brazil’s national team! I don’t believe in coincidences. I think that things happen in life for a reason and I’m grateful for the connection I have with Alex and his family, because I like to have good people around me. In the footballing world I have a lot of friends, colleagues, people I know. However, I only have a few close and true friends – and Alex is one of them.
Alex Sandro: In many ways, we have walked the same path. It is always good to be at the same club with a friend like Danilo, it is good to train and play together because it’s like being with your family. That helps us a lot.
D: I tried to go another way, but he called me and said, “Come here and play with me!” I said, “All right, all right, I’ll come.”
AS: The truth is that he can’t stay away from me for too long, you know? So I said, “OK my friend, you need someone to take care of you. Come here and I’ll help you.”
D: Everything. Porto was a period in which we really grew a lot as players in Europe, and as men. We went through changes in our lives, moving to another country. We spent many afternoons and nights together during the training camps. To this day we still sit down to discuss things – and we still talk about the same subjects!
AS: Even during the training camp, he asked to be in the same room as me…
AS: Well, I did. Especially because when I got there I was suddenly with Hulk and João Moutinho, then Lucho González and Hélton. Those were all remarkable players who left a mark; I really learned and evolved in that dressing room. So I believe Porto’s history and infrastructure have a significant impact on every player who’s ever been there, especially the young ones.
D: Ever since I left, Porto’s been “my” club: the one I personally support.
D: Look, I’m going to tell you a secret. Often he has the ball, he’s advancing, and I say, “Pass the ball already, don’t go full steam ahead!” But he likes to dribble, to go 100%, and I get a little upset with him because he doesn’t give me a break and I can’t take a breather.
AS: Yes, but sometimes we negotiate: “I’ll cross this one, you do the next one; don’t come after me and I won’t go after you.”
D: It’s been like that for so many years…
AS: The situation wasn't pleasant at all: to stop doing everything you are used to doing, everything that makes you happy. But, thank God, I was OK. I had an entire structure around me to help me in that moment. Whether I wanted it or not, this time in quarantine has made me stronger. I came back more mature, better, and knowing more about Covid-19.
AS: It’s hard to get used to it. We always hope that in the next match they’ll maybe open the gates, but we also respect and understand the situation we’re going through. Anyway, today we’re much more used to it; it was really weird right at the beginning. It was quite hard.
D: I find it weird watching videos from the first half of last season, when there were still fans – it looks like it was 10 or 15 years ago. It looks like something from a bygone era. We’re much more used to it now, but I don’t want to get even more used to it.
AS: I think it will be a shock when they come back. A good shock.
D: I hope they come back as soon as possible, because the fun and the magic of football is only complete with the fans there in a crowded stadium. Without that, it’s not the same.
AS: It’s not complete.
