Dinner with Cristiano Ronaldo and the long road home - Pedro Geromel in the form of his life

The Gremio defender spoke exclusively to Brasil Global Tour on his life touring Europe and triumphant homecoming that took him to the Selecao

EXCLUSIVE

When Pedro Geromel arrived at Gremio in 2014, few in Porto Alegre even knew who he was.

His immediate impact and assured showings at the heart of their defence not only instantly made him a household name, they quickly led to him gaining a new one.

Geromito is now a club icon. And the rest of the country are now more than familiar with the 31-year-old.

And Brazil coach Tite certainly had no problems remembering his name when it came to selecting his Brazil squad.
