Juninho not settledCeltic midfielder Juninho has revealed the different approach to football taken by coaches in the Scottish Premier League has been difficult to adapt to and has led to him begging to be allowed to return home to Brazil to play.
"I want to go back to Brazil and play football. I adapted to English football and I thought the style would be the same in Scotland,” Juninho said.
"I waited and tried to adapt but the coaches and players have a different way of thinking here.
"The coach asked me to act outside my natural instincts. Here it is not in the mentality to pass the ball in midfield. It goes directly to the attack and it makes it difficult for midfield players."
"I wanted to play another one or two years in Europe but people have to search for happiness."
