AC Milan Legend Cafu Explains Why Brazil Won't Win World Cup

Brazilian football legend Cafu, who led his national team to victory in the 2002 World Cup, has expressed his belief that Brazil's chances of winning the tournament in the near future are slim, and he points to the Premier League as the main reason behind this setback.

English Football Damaging Brazil's Premier League Stars

Cafu argues that the mentality of Brazil's Premier League stars has been negatively impacted by English football. He suggests that players such as Alisson, Ederson, and Gabriel Jesus have been "brainwashed" into believing they play in the best competition in the world, when in reality, they are not among the best.

LaLiga's Higher Mentality for Winning Trophies

The former right-back emphasizes that LaLiga has a higher mentality when it comes to reaching finals and winning trophies. He believes that the lack of character and excessive media hype surrounding Premier League players affects Brazil's performance at the top level.

Speaking Football, Not Myth

Cafu praises LaLiga for its focus on football and its avoidance of media hype. He suggests that in LaLiga, players are not subjected to constant praise or false narratives, and this allows them to maintain a higher level of focus and performance.

It remains to be seen how Brazil will fare in future World Cup tournaments, but according to Cafu, their chances of success may be hampered as long as their top players continue to ply their trade in the Premier League.
