He gave me this name, although I never thought about its origin. And when Zenit became interested, I began to learn more about the country and realized that the name Ivan is quite popular here. It is not very common in Brazil. And in Russia I already have two acquaintances Ivan. It’s cool that I came here with a Russian name, – quotes the words of the goalkeeper “Championship”.
