\u201cPito was the deserved winner of this award. He had an excellent 2023. I was there with him [at Barcelona]. He was without doubt the best player of the year. He\u2019s been working really hard over the last few years, it was one of his targets, and it\u2019s come off. Now the two of us have the chance to crown our careers with the World Cup title. It would be spectacular to have a World Cup title and the Best Player award. We\u2019ll go in search of the title in every way possible. As for this award, it was more than deserved. I\u2019m really happy for Pito and for Chapeco.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cPito thoroughly deserves it. He\u2019s an unbelievable player. He\u2019s super dangerous. He threatens his opponents with every touch. He\u2019s versatile. He plays as a pivot, a winger. When he needs to mark, he marks. I think it was between Pito, Pany Varela and Zicky. For me all three would have been worthy winners. Pito has been deserving of this award, he\u2019s been playing magnificently. It\u2019s in good hands. I think it went to the right guy. He truly represents beautiful futsal, modern futsal. Pito, you deserved it.\u201d
\nHiguita, Kazakhstan goalkeeper<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m super happy for him. I know how much he did to deserve this award and how much he wanted it on his r\u00e9sum\u00e9. Pito combines being a really talented player with the quality of the work he puts in. He\u2019s one of the most focused players I know. I had the joy of playing alongside him for two clubs, and we\u2019ve spent a few years together in the national team, so I\u2019ve been able to observe many things, especially how well prepared he is for the biggest games of the year. It\u2019s no coincidence that he has become one of the most decisive and unique players in futsal. Congratulations, Pito 10!\u201d
\nMarlon, Brazil fixo<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s normal that Pito was named the Best Player in the World. He deserves it and is an extraordinary player. He makes the difference on the court, has won everything with Barcelona and, for me, is the best player in the world alongside Pany Varela and Catela.\u201d
\nSoufiane El Mesrar<\/p>\n
\u201cHe deserves it. I\u2019m very, very happy for him. He\u2019s a magnificent player, a fantastic player. I\u2019m very proud that I can say I played alongside him for two-and-a-half years. When he arrived at ElPozo, being honest, I would have never said he would become the best player in the world. But he worked so hard every day to improve his game, improve his career. After six months, a year I was sure that he could play for the best club in the world, be the best player. He put 100 per cent effort in every day to win a prize like this today. He got the reward for the work he put in. Let me repeat this once more: I\u2019m very happy for Pito because he deserves it.\u201d
\nDario Marinovic, Croatia winger<\/p>\n
\u201cPito is not only a great player, but a great team-mate. I\u2019m very happy that he is considered the best player in the world and I hope I can share a lot of moments and titles with him [at Barcelona].\u201d
\nCatela, Spain winger<\/p>\n
\u201cFor me it was the right choice, Pito deserved to be the best in the world. He\u2019s been playing really well for Barcelona, scoring important goals, always showing up at the most crucial moments. When you need him most, he\u2019s there. It\u2019s the same in the Brazilian national team. He always shows up when they need him, he never shies away from the game. I think he\u2019s been among the top five players in the world \u2013 or the top three \u2013 for many years. This award was thoroughly deserved because in the crucial moments, he showed up.\u201d
\nBruno Chaguinha<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst, the fact that El Mesrar in in the top 10 twice in a row is a very nice achievement. Pito won and you can\u2019t be surprised about that. He is a player with special qualities. He plays at one of the best clubs in the world, which is no coincidence. He is very important for Barcelona and his national team Brazil. I wish him the very best.\u201d
