“Do you know Ancelotti’s salary?” Then it is up to him to make his call. Martinelli has been without a doubt here in Fluminense. It’s a player who pleases me a lot. I talk to him a lot, I have given a lot of advice since my arrival. One of the requests I make is for him to step on the area. He has quality for this and every time he treads, he scores. So he needs to evolve in this regard. He is not just a marking and distribution player, he has to arrive to finish too, ”said Renato.
