TwitterJosé Kléberson Pereira he is a Brazilian football midfielder
Kléberson made his first international appearance for Brazil in a friendly match against Bolivia on January 31, 2002. He also marked his debut by scoring Brazil's fourth goal in a 6–0 win. He was subsequently selected by Luiz Felipe Scolari into Brazil's squad for the 2002 FIFA World Cup. He was initially relegated to the bench for the first four matches in the tournament. He was brought into the starting line-up for Brazil's game against England, with Scolari feeling his tenacity would help counter the high work-rate of the English side. His tackle on his future team-mate Paul Scholes led to Brazil's equaliser before Brazil ended up winning 2–1. He then was included in the starting lineup for the rest of the tournament. Brazil defeated Germany in the final, with Kléberson setting up one of the two Brazilian goals, as Brazil won the World Cup for a record fifth time.
After the World Cup, he retained his starting position in Brazil's team under the new coach Carlos Alberto Parreira and was also included in Brazil's squad for 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup, where Brazil were eliminated in the group stage. That summer, Kléberson moved to Europe to join Manchester United. He failed to achieve regular playing time with his club, and as a result he lost his position in the national team. He managed to be included in Brazil's squad for the Copa América 2004. He made five appearances in the tournament, starting in every match he played as Brazil went on to win the tournament.
After more than four years in the international wilderness, Kléberson was recalled to the national team by Dunga on May 28, 2009. He was recalled to replace Anderson in two matches for 2010 FIFA World Cup Qualification and the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup in South Africa.[9] After recovering from his shoulder surgery once again Kléberson has been called up for the national team on February 9, 2010 to a friendly match against Ireland on March 2, in London.[10]
Kléberson was then called up to Brazil's 2010 World Cup squad by Dunga on the 11 May.[11] The 23-men squad was almost exactly the same as the squad against Ireland but include one additional player Heurelho Gomes.
