Training soccer players in Brazil

This essay looks into how soccer players are trained in Brazil and how they move through the international market. Player training was observed in ethnographic research conducted from 2001 to 2005, investigating training models in Brazil and France. Further research was done in 2005 to identify how Brazilian athletes moved across transnational borders, having a greater sociological bent. Key markets were identified for players trained in Brazil.
