Rio de Janeiro<\/strong>: Former Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano feels his current club Sao Paulo is all set to return to the top of Brazilian football after three seasons without a trophy.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sao Paulo, one of only five teams to have never been relegated from Brazil’s top division, has not won anything since securing its third successive national league title in 2008.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The club will play Ponte Preta Thursday for a spot in the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil followed by Sunday’s semifinal of the Sao Paulo championship against Santos, reports Xinhua.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We are feeling the pressure because it has been so long since we last won anything,” said the Brazilian international, who also played for Sao Paulo from 2001 to 2004.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Let’s see if we have what it takes to be champions. I think we do because this team has quality, this is our year.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fabiano returned to Brazil last year after 148 appearances and 72 goals for Spanish club Sevilla between 2005 and 2011.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

He has represented Brazil 43 times, scoring 28 goals.(INAS)<\/strong><\/p>\n
