Union Omaha’s star man Pedro Dolabella joins Jamil Roberts and Dom Okus on this week's edition of the back stick podcast. The Brazilian shares his journey from Brazil to the US, his experiences in the Sao Paolo academy system, and the challenges faced by young men in Brazil, such as Endrick. The conversation delves into the cultural differences and similarities between England and Brazil, the importance of football as a means of escape from difficult circumstances, and the support systems in place for young footballers in Brazil. Pedro reflects on his recent achievements, including winning the USL League One double with Union Omaha, and the emotional journey of the playoffs. The discussion also touches on the dynamics of playing against friends as Pedro & Jam face off for the first time in their professional careers after being teammates for so long.
