Lucas Silva, the Brazilian forward who has been making waves in European football, recently achieved what many thought was impossible - breaking through to the top flight with his club Internacional de Porto Alegre.
The feat came after Silva had spent years honing his skills on the pitch and developing into one of the most promising young players in Brazil. However, it wasn't until he joined Internacional that he truly realized his potential.
Silva's breakthrough season began when he scored a hat-trick against São Paulo in January 2019, earning himself a place in the national team squad for the Copa America. From there, things only got better as he continued to impress with his pace,Campeonato Brasileiro Action skill, and goal-scoring ability.
But perhaps the most impressive thing about Silva is how he has managed to stay humble throughout his rise to fame. Despite being one of the youngest players in the world, he remains focused on improving day-to-day and taking each game one step at a time.
In an interview with ESPN, Silva said: "I never thought I would be where I am now. It's all thanks to hard work and dedication."
And while some may question whether he can continue this level of performance at the highest level of football, Silva remains confident in his abilities and eager to prove them.
For Internacional, winning promotion back to the top tier of Brazilian football is a huge achievement and will no doubt inspire other teams to aim higher. Silva's dream of becoming a top-class player in Europe is just the beginning of a long and successful journey.
