Midfielder Alan Patrick lost his starting spot at Internacional. The technical committee of the Brazilian club is reevaluating the squad's functions during the World Cup break.
What happened?
Alan Patrick was seen as a leader in the dressing room and a reference within the group, but ended up losing his starting spot with coach Paulo Pezzolano.
Why did this happen?
Paulo Pezzolano's choice of a more reactive model in the Brazilian Championship made Internacional look for other characteristics in midfielders.
What is Alan Patrick's role?
Alan Patrick has already played 23 games in the season, with 19 as a starter, scoring five goals and providing five assists. He needs to regain his spot in the team.
