Part 2/9:
In the realm of football, particularly in Brazil, there is an inherent pressure to promote young players from the youth academy to the first team. Muricy, a respected figure in São Paulo's football history, emphasized the need for calm and patience. Similar sentiments were echoed by Abel Ferreira of Palmeiras, who advocated for a measured approach to integrating youth players into competitive scenarios. Ferreira suggested that hasty promotion could lead to wasted potential, where players find themselves neither playing effectively in the professional arena nor having the opportunity to shine in the youth leagues.
