Vozinha reveals the other side of fame after FIFA World Cup 2026

Vozinha, the goalkeeper for Cape Verde and Colo-Colo, revealed the significant impact fame has had on his life after participating with his national team in the FIFA World Cup 2026, stating that his life has changed noticeably and his privacy has become extremely limited.

Vozinha said: "I have lost my peace and calm. I no longer have any privacy, or at least it has become much less than it used to be. Now, when I go out or go to a restaurant, I always find someone wanting to take a picture with me or asking for an autograph, or worse, someone filming me. This is what has changed the most in my life, and I don't think I can do anything about it."

Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha added: "Many people want fame and media exposure, but they only see the positive side of this reality. Honestly, if I had to choose between the life I live today and the life I lived before, I would choose the life I lived before."

Vozinha also spoke about the way he is trying to deal with the growing interest on social media, explaining that he has made the decision to reduce his notifications on his Instagram account.

He said: "I decided to turn off Instagram notifications so that I am not tempted to keep checking the people who follow me."

Cape Verde goalkeeper's statements reveal the other side of fame that has come to him after the FIFA World Cup 2026, as public and media attention has become a constant part of his daily life, something he believes has changed many details of his life compared to what it was like before the tournament.
