Ferreira said: "In contrast to many other clubs, Palmeiras takes care of his players."
"If people have a little empathy, it's normal to have these feelings, especially for an 18-year-old."
"Estewan is so pure and innocent that he really speaks about his feelings. It's normal."
"He's just a child and just transferred. Do you know what the difference between humans and animals? Our feelings and emotions. It's normal for a child to have a dream and see it happening, to feel anxious and nervous. It's normal for him to feel these, but many of you (reporters) have besieged him."
"Look at what you did to him and see what you did to the young players. I understand that this is something that can be sold, brings more clicks, it's bloody. I understand that we are different from you in the way you make money, but I don't think it's the right way. The only time he said his feelings, this happened."
Looking forward to the match against Bottafogo, Ferreira said: "Anibar Moreno will be able to play against Bottafogo. Pa's matchup between Brazilian teams will be fierce because both sides know each other very well."
"It's incredible to have four Brazilian teams advance to the Club World Cup knockout stage, and I mean Flamenco and Frumenense are still in the game."
