\"footballRio de Janeiro: Uruguayan defender Emilio Zeballos has described the opportunity to represent Chapecoense<\/a><\/span><\/strong> as a “privilege” as he prepares to begin a one-year loan spell with the striken Brazilian football club.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old is one of the first players to arrive at Chapecoense since a plane crash killed most of the club’s players, staff and directors in November, last year, reports Xinhua news agency.<\/p>\n

“It’s an honour to know that Chapecoense had their eyes on me and it will be a privilege to wear their beautiful shirt,” Zeballos told reporters on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“I’m relaxed but also anxious at the same time. I know that I’m going to experience some emotional and unforgettable moments. The city still feels great pain but if we all work together we are going to recover.”<\/p>\n

Zeballos is currently contracted to Uruguay’s Defensor, where he has featured at both right back and centre-back.<\/p>\n

Others to have already joined Chapecoense include forward Rossi Pereira, goalkeeper Davi, central defender Douglas Grolli and midfielder Dodo.<\/p>\n

Seventy-one people died, including 19 Chapecoense players, when the LaMia plane in which they were travelling crashed near Medellin, Colombia, on November 28.<\/p>\n

The accident occurred less than two days before Chapecoense were due to play Colombia’s Atletico Nacional in the first leg of the two-match Copa Sudamericana final.<\/p>\n

Chapecoense were last month awarded the title at the request of Atletico Nacional.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
