His father (left) known as Dondinho, was a gifted footballer who took his family out of poverty.

His mother Celeste, serving food here was adamant her son would not follow in his father’s footsteps but by the time he was a teenager, scouts from the big clubs from Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo were knocking on his door.  Photograph: Getty Images
