Eduardo wants Brazil move
Eduardo Da Silva says that he dreams of returning to his homeland Brazil at some point in his career.
The striker moved from Brazil to Croatia as a teenager, and represents the Croatian national team, but says that his heart is still very much in his homeland.
Eduardo has a contract with Arsenal until 2014, but would ideally like to end his career in the Brazilian league.
He said: "I have signed a contract with Arsenal until June 2014 and I am happy in London. I hope that I will stay there but I would also like to test myself in the Brazilian League.
"I dream of playing for Vasco Da Gama. I remember as a child watching Romario scoring great goals. He was my idol and he was the player that made me want to become a striker.
"It won't be easy because I would go there and be like a foreigner myself. But it would be beautiful to experience it, even for just one year.
"The Brazilian mentality in football is unique. I have enjoyed great experiences in Europe and many things would have to change for me to go to Brazil.
"Members of my family are in Brazil. I went back there to recover from my injury and I still love the country."
The 27-year-old maintained, however, that his main focus for the moment is helping current club Arsenal to a win over Tottenham on Wednesday.
"But now I am concentrating on Arsenal and fighting for the Premier League. The key now for us is to defeat Tottenham and we are ready for the challenge."
