Currently in Santosmidfielder Jean Lucas was trained in the youth teams of the Flamengo and in his first spell at Peixe, in 2019, he worked with Jorge Sampaoli as coach.
The Argentine was recently fired from Fla after work that yielded no results, displeased the fans and created a turbulent atmosphere in the locker rooms between athletes and the coaching staff. However, Jean Lucas’ experience was very different from the image that remained of the Argentine in Gávea.
“In 2019, Bruno Henrique went to Flamengo and a player had to go to Santos, and he (Sampaoli) called me. ‘Do you want to come and play with me?’. I said ‘no, of course, Santos, who doesn’t want to? play at Santos? Yes, I will’. I talked to my parents ‘let’s go to Santos, we’ll be very happy there’. When I got there, I started playing, I played three games, but like him, it doesn’t change (laughs). I played three games and didn’t play for three,” said Jean Lucas, on SporTV’s “Boleiragem” program.
“‘I’m here on loan, I have to make it happen, otherwise it’s going to be bad. I’m going back to Flamengo, and then what’s going to happen?’ to play, right?’. I went to talk to him ‘professor, I have a year to stay here, what do I have to do to play?’. He called me into the room, started showing me a bunch of videos of the guys ‘I want you do it from here’. It showed De Bruyne… he told me ‘I want you to do it like him, move, pass’. So okay, I’ll try to do it like De Bruyne (laughs)”, he continued.
“He sent me videos on Whatsapp, he became like a father to me, he talked to me every day. He said ‘arrive early (at training) and leave after everyone else’. He was a guy who was essential for me at Santos, He helped me a lot, he’s a guy I have a lot of affection for, he helped me a lot in my career”, he analyzed.
The 25-year-old midfielder also gave more details about his experience with Sampaoli at Santos in 2019, the year in which Peixe was runner-up in the Brasileirão and had a “champion score” (74), but was no match for the red machine. black by Jorge Jesus, who lifted the cup with 90 points.
“He’s a guy who likes to talk a lot, who works hard too. He has a very loud personality. There were some kids who were even afraid to train there with him, when we were doing passing work, there were some young guys who made mistakes, he even swore . It demanded a lot from the player”
