When Rafael da Silva left Manchester United, he claimed it was because Louis van Gaal didn’t like Brazilians. However, Andreas Pereira claims this hasn’t been his experience of the manager at all.

My relationship with him is normal, just like all the players. I don’t think he had this business with Brazilians, no. Everyone says that he sends Brazilians away, it’s not so. He treats me normal and equal to everyone. I don’t think he has anything against Brazilians. Everyone can say what they want, but with me it’s going good.
