Dimas pens his first letter as club captain.
I was very happy to be announced as club captain last week: I feel good with the decision and happy with the confidence the club has placed in me to lead the Wanderers on and off the field.
Ā
For the coach and my teammates to believe in me is very special and I will work hard to repay the faith they have in me.
Ā
When I first came to Australia I did not think I would lead the Wanderers, let alone in just one year of arriving.
Ā
When you come to a new place you just concentrate on doing your best and enjoying your football.
Ā
That is what I did last season and it was a great experience: everything was wonderful with both my club and my teammates. I believe that this year can be good as well.
Ā
While I wasnāt expecting to be appointed captain, this isnāt my first time being a leader. I was captain for FC Barcelona B and again when I moved to Recreativo Huelva in my second season.
BE THERE AT TONIGHT’S MATCH. TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE.
Ā
Being a leader is normal for me because I like to be with my mates on the field, I like to help my mates and I like to achieve big things together with my mates. After three appearances in Grand Final I think the club deserves to win one and hopefully it will be this year.
Ā
The Wanderers are a fantastic club and for me itās a big pleasure to stay here and hopefully we can continue for many years more.

Dimas
Club Captain
