FC Goa new boy Lucio unveiled in Dubai

NULL

Former Inter Milan and Bayern Munich defender Lucio has spoken of his delight at linking up with his Brazilian compatriot Zico at FC Goa. Lucio, 37, is currently training with his new team-mates in Dubai as Zico puts his Indian Super League side through their final paces ahead of the new season's kick-off next month. And Lucio, who won the treble with Inter Milan in 2010 and captained Brazil at the World Cup Finals in the same year, is relishing the season ahead as his new team look to improve on last season's third place finish. “For me it is a privilege to play at FC Goa and work with Zico,” said the veteran defender. “I am still loving football and to work with our Indian players is delightful. They are really committed.” FC Goa will be training at Dubai Sports City for the duration of their two-week stay in the UAE.
