Barcelona forward – who could have joined Arsenal – has sights on Women’s World Cup after her Champions League triumph
Geyse would rather play football for hours than speak to journalists. She is an introvert, but when paired with those she feels comfortable with – such as her Brazil teammates at the World Cup – she becomes a dancer, singer and prankster. And, even though she may be shy at first, she is pretty confident when talking about her dreams.
“Winning the World Cup and becoming the first player to win a World Cup and a Champions League in the same year,” the Barcelona forward says of those dreams from Brazil’s training camp in Australia. That ambition is very much alive – she was part of the Barça squad that secured the Women’s Champions League in June and is about to play in her second World Cup.
