Carlos hopes to return to the national team

January 5, 2010

Roberto Carlos was officially introduced to the fans of his new club Corinthians on Monday at a press conference, where he revealed his high ambitions with the Brazilian side.

36-year-old left back Carlos said he hopes that good performances with Corinthians this year could open the door to a return to the national team for the first time since the 2006 World Cup.

“National coach Dunga can keep an eye on me from up close here,” said the 125 times capped Carlos.

The former Real Madrid star also has great plans with his new club Corinthians.

“I have come to win the Copa Libertadores. This title would mean the same, or even more, than the Champions League I won with Real Madrid in Europe.

“It’s one of the few titles I haven’t won in my career.”

Carlos also revealed his plans of his life after football.

“When my contract ends, I hope to return to Real Madrid but not as a player. I want to end my football career at Corinthians,” Carlos told the 6000 fans who were present at his official presentation.
