“It’s very early to talk about it. I’m not closing the door to the Seleção. But I also don’t guarantee 100 percent that I will return,” said the superstar in Al-Rajjan. The Brazilians had previously missed out on a place in the semi-finals after beating Croatia 4-2 on penalties. “I’ll have to analyze and think a bit about everything that’s good for me, what’s good for the Seleção,” said the 30-year-old.
The Paris Saint-Germain striker had said before the tournament that this would likely be his last World Cup. Now he sounded as if the game against Croatia may even have been his last for the Seleção.
