Guilherme Alvin Marinato

Guilherme Alvin Marinato, a Brazilian by nationality, surprisingly, is considered an old-timer and, what is especially valuable, a symbol of the Lokomotiv football club. The Russian footballer - and the goalkeeper arrived in the country in 2007 - got used to his second homeland so much that he could sharply besiege the head coach of the team, standing up for his comrades, and in interviews he could freely use words from Russian folklore.

Together with the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation, Guilherme received a new name - his friends jokingly call the goalkeeper Grisha. Former mentor Anatoly Byshovets believes that Marinato is a worthy replacement for Igor Akinfeev at the goal of the national team.

The future footballer was born and raised in the Brazilian town of Cataguazis, located in the state of Minas Gerais. The father of the future football player, Sebastian, worked at a textile factory, and Marlise's mother ran the household and raised the children. The older brother Leo grew up in the family, who also went through a sports school, played football at an amateur level, but preferred training at the university to professional sports.

Initially, just after getting into the section, Guilherme wanted to be a fielder. Until the age of 10 he played as a defender, but, in his own opinion, he turned out to be one of the weakest guys in the team.

Once the nominal goalkeepers did not come to training, and the coach ordered Guilherme, as the tallest boy, to stand in the goal. Since then, Marinato has been defending the goal against the opponents' goals.

By the way, the growth of the football player was really incredibly high (over time, Marinato stretched out to 197 cm). In adolescence, he was ahead of his peers by a head. It is all the more surprising that the athlete's father is short. Due to the discrepancy between age and height, the boy had to carry a birth certificate and a photo of his grandfather to the competition, in which the grandson grew. Prior to these measures, the referees of the tournaments repeatedly tried to expel the guy, suspecting an older player in Guilherme.

In Brazil, Guilherme played for only one club, Atletico Paranaense from Curitiba. Marinato played regularly for the youth squad and once even scored a goal with his head after serving from a corner flag. For the first team, the young man played only 10 matches over 3 seasons, in which he conceded 11 goals in total.

In 2007, the goalkeeper moved to the Moscow club Lokomotiv. Initially, the scouts came to see the defensive midfielder from the opposing team. But Guilherme impressed them with his saves and soon received an invitation from the Russian capital, thus becoming the first Brazilian goalkeeper in the Russian championship. In the Russian team, Guilherme initially received the number 85, since the first number, at the request of the club president, Yuri Semin, remained with Sergei Ovchinnikov, who by that time had completed his sports career at Lokomotiv.

Adaptation in a new country with a different mentality and climate was hard for the Brazilian. Guilherme did not make it into the squad for a long time, playing only at youth matches. In 2008 he received a serious injury, which became the first in the athlete's career.

The operation carried out at home did not lead to a positive result, since the rupture of the ligaments occurred in the very first game that followed after the rehabilitation period. The second operation took place in Germany.

This period of his sports biography was not easy for the football player, since Guilherme had never had any injuries, even minor ones. After two seasons, Lokomotiv's management even wanted to terminate the agreement with the Brazilian, but then head coach Yuri Semin intervened. The head decided to give the goalkeeper a chance, and after a serious summer training camp entrusted Marinato with the number one post in the match against the Tom team.

Guilherme lived up to the expectations of the coach who believed in him: he defended the match to zero and gradually became the main guard of the railroad gates. According to statistics, already in 2009, almost 60% of fans preferred the Brazilian as the best player in the Lokomotiv team.

In the summer of 2015, after a wave of rumors about his transfer to the Krasnodar camp, the Brazilian told the press that he dreamed of playing for Loko until the end of his career.

In November 2015, after living in Moscow for almost 8 years, the Brazilian footballer received Russian citizenship. The new passport allowed the goalkeeper to get rid of the title of "legionnaire" and qualify for a place in the national team. And soon the challenge followed.

In 2016, head coach Leonid Slutskiy invited the Lokomotiv goalkeeper for a friendly game against the Lithuanian national team, and then included the newly-made Russian in the final list of players participating in the European Football Championship. Together with Guilherme, Igor Akinfeev and Yuri Lodygin became the goalkeepers of the Russian national team.

Russian citizenship in the RFPL is beneficial for the players - according to a number of media outlets, footballers receive an unspoken salary increase. Whether this affected Guilherme's salary at Loko is unknown, but in 2017 the athlete received € 2 million.

Coincidence or not, but soon after the presentation of the cherished booklet with a two-headed eagle to Guilherme, Mario Fernandez and Ari announced their desire to become citizens of Russia.

While still a player in the youth squad of Atletico Paranaense, Guilherme at the disco met a journalist and radio host named Rafaele. Young people met for 4 years, and in 2009, just on the footballer's birthday, they got married.

Guilherme transported his wife to Moscow. After 3 years, the family was replenished with a daughter, Maria Fernanda, and then with a second girl, Sophia. Both have Russian citizenship. The wife and children do not miss Lokomotiv's home matches, demonstrating their support to her husband. Girls regularly become heroines of the player's personal account on Instagram.

Rafaele also has a page on the social network, but the photos are available for viewing only to select subscribers. The woman did not receive a Russian passport - it is too complicated a process, and the spouses do not want to waste time on this yet.

Together with his family, the footballer lives in a country house in the village of Angelovo near Moscow. The eldest daughter attends a specialized kindergarten, where classes are taught by immigrants from the UK.

The goalkeeper spoke quickly in Russian. At the same time, Marinato worked with the teacher only twice, and then honed his colloquial speech in conversations with teammates.

Now the athlete easily calculates in which places the traffic cops are hiding so as not to run into a fine, because he likes to drive a car. In a Latin American country, relations with a police officer are stricter:

The only thing that the Brazilian is still surprised at is the difference in mentality:

Marinato is still thinking about where he will live at the end of his career. You may have to fly to 2 continents.

Guilherme is a devout man who attends the Catholic Church in Moscow. Even tattoos that are fashionable among football players are dedicated to religious themes.

The favorite style of music of the Lokomotiv goalkeeper is hip-hop, the Brazilian is considered an ardent fan of Timati. He is a fan of the Spanish Barcelona, ​​says that, like other players, he would not refuse an invitation to a European club.

In mid-July 2017, at the match for the Russian Super Cup, where the Lokomotiv team entered the field against Spartak, the fans of the red-whites insulted the goalkeeper Guilherme with racist remarks. After the meeting of the RFU Control and Disciplinary Committee, Spartak was fined 250 thousand rubles. In the event of repeated incidents, the Moscow club was also warned of tougher penalties. Guilherme himself declined to comment on the incident.

In the same year, the Lokomotiv academy hosted the shooting of the film Out of the Game, which told about the relationship between the club's football player and the fan. Along with professional actors, the film involves "railway workers" Guilherme, Dmitry Tarasov, Dmitry Barinov and brothers Anton and Alexey Miranchuk.

In the fall of 2017, at a home match in the Europa League group stage between Lokomotiv and Sheriff, Guilherme was injured and had to leave the field. The goalkeeper was replaced by Nikita Medvedev, an invited goalkeeper from Rostov. As a result of the incident, Marinato missed the match of the 16th round of the Russian Premier League, in which the "railroad" team played against CSKA.

In 2018, Guilherme, who said more than once that he dreamed of playing for the national team, almost said goodbye to the opportunity to take the No. 1 post at the goal. The footballer did not make it to the FIFA World Cup, the Confederations Cup also passed by. The disappointment was sweetened by the victory in the Russian championship.

However, unexpectedly, the athlete was summoned to the meetings of the group stage of the League of Nations, where Marinato played zero twice. The goalkeeper of the Russian national team entered the symbolic Lev Yashin Club, whose members are the goalkeepers who have kept the goal "dry" for 100 matches. In total, Guilherme played 4 matches for the national team, in 3 of which he did not concede a single goal.
