"Kiev is a beautiful city, I really liked it. I perfectly adapt here, I get used, I really like. It's very beautiful here, "said Fernando.

"Yes, I did have an offer from Italy, from Turin. But I am very glad that I accepted the offer of the Miner. I am very happy here and I hope that this will continue to be so ".

"How do I call myself? I'm used to being called Fernando. Honestly, no one used to call me Fernandinho, so call me just "Fernando". I like it so".
