"I had my first conversation with Shevchenko when I was playing for Dynamo. For almost a year, I was deciding whether to get citizenship because I wanted to be 100% sure that it was the right choice. As soon as I joined Shakhtar, I had a long-term deal when I was at the peak of my career, then I decided to play for the national team.

It was incredible, because working with Shevchenko the coach is a great memory! And it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I made my debut in the match against Portugal. It was incredible," Moraes told Ogol.com.br.
