Ely has certainly shown in the pre-season that he has grown a lot in the past few season in B. Let's not forget that when we got him from Gremio there was much hype around him and many in the media labeled him as the next Thiago Silva (for what it's worth).
Even at Reggina in 2012 he was compared to TS33- From Google Translate.
He has been a consistent performer in B and has earned Youth Caps for Italy as well as Brazil. Really looking forward to watching him this season.

Quote:Someone compares to Thiago Silva , when you were both to AC Milan Brazilian gave you specific advice on how to stay in field? "As for the comparison I would say that is a bit 'soon, I hope to make his career if not more (laughs, ed). I learned a lot from him but also from other players of AC Milan. Maybe I was asking advice on how to behave in certain actions of the game and they were always available.
